I have a new 55g with sand and lava rock.
I have no idea what to get for a clean up crew. If someone could give me some advise or give me a link that would be wonderful. I came from freshwater (of course) and I'm use to hating snails. I will learn to love them because my tank is starting to turn brown. I don't know if this matters but I'm planning on putting some clowns, a flame angel, and a yellow watchman goby in.
 
Snails are the reefkeepers dream instead of nightmare! You need lots of turbo snails and/or hermits. Usualy redlegs but also bluelegs seem popular.

Try to aim for 1 cleanup crew per gallon of water.

Other critters to consider are cleaner shrimps (good at scavenging), Cerith Snail (good at churning sand)
 
since i see you're in the US, Reeftopia is a great place to order from online. They have good prices and you can get a lot :hey:
