They look like turbo snails.
I would recommend trying to sell them or giving them to your lfs, becuase that is way too many snails. Also, when turbo snails die, they can pollute the water very quickly, so with that many snails, the pollution would be much worse.

Had a big snail die last week, between the hermits and cleaner shrimp they ate him and some of the fish also got some fresh snail in the water column lol.
 
The picture below is from Turbo fluctuosus (Mexican Turbo):

In Australia there are also several species of the Turbinidae family and, at least in the shape of the shell, Turbo kenwilliamsi (Turbo pulcher) is very similar to the Mexican turbo:
