Any of the first 9 are Reef safe. You pick, its your tank
Turbos are great algea eaters, blue and red legged hermits eat garbage on the bottom, they all do about the same, jsut in different sizes and strengths. Bumble Bee snails are really cool, I have some of those for over 6 years now.
the fish you mention will get along, but Blue mandarins are tough to keep. You have to feed PODS in the tank.

Introduce a couple of Small Hermit Crabs and/or Snails. They are both cheap and very tough in a cycling environment. Test for Ammonia and Nitrates if you can. Don't introduce Corals and Fish (except Damsels) until they are near zero.
