I have a fluval 13.5 and have 2 red leg hermits and 2 turbo snails and 2 bumblebee snails. They seem to keep it all clean and healthy.
 
I would stick to snails only and just start with a few. If you must add a hermit, make it a scarlet, they're less murderous than others. One or two nassarius, a couple trochus and if you can find some strombus maculatus (nano conchs), they'll do a great job and multiply for you.
 
Regardless, just start with a couple and add as you need them, don't start with a "package", they're not a good idea for new tanks.
