I Love Love Love urchins too. Such cool creatures. But they will eat your coralline algae too. I had to put mine in the sump until my tank gets more coralline growing in it.
I didn't know they ate coralline, whoops. I've had a black spine urchin for a couple years and never noticed it. I do however need to get rid of it soon as it has grown quite large for my tank
 
Trochus snails AKA Reef Roomba's... I threw 7 in my tank (60g cube) because my rocks were covered. Two days later my rocks looked like they were new. The Trochus do not spend much time on the sand though so you'd want Nassarius or Cerith snails there. They'll pick up the slack your Fighting Conch misses. I also have blue legged hermits and emerald roadrunner email crabs that help as well. For cleanup crew fish I have a Starry Blenny and a Tailspot Blenny and both munch on green algae.

Noice!
