I think 30 snails in a small tank is also way overkill. In fact, I find most "clean-up crew" packages to be way more than necessary and most of the snails and hermits will die off over time.

As has been mentioned already, tackling the source of the algae (nutrient control) is better and adding something to eat the available algae will be a good two-way approach. Just don't overdo it on the algae eaters.
