I have tons of MTS so I bought 6 assassin snails to help out. How long b4 I see a dent in the population?? The tank is a 150 gallon.

Depends ... my assassins don't really like mts but they love rams horns! Have you seen them eating the mts? I hate mts!

give it with 6 assassins it'll probably take a few months before they get the MTS population under control. i had my 135 gal tank infested with MTS i added 20 Assassins and it took about 3 weeks to control the population and about 1.5 months from introducing the assassins the MTS were wiped out, i can vouch that they eat MTS... of course there was no other species of snails left to eat.
