Yes - give the female yellow perch a try. I would add more than 6 maybe 10-12 if you can get that many in spring (ice out to May 07-12(?) before they spawn and females are full of eggs. Reproducing perch will be a problem to too many then you will need a predator. Perch will eat the common pond snail that you can easily crush pinched between your fingers but not eat the other thicker shelled genera very well. If you make a mistake and introduce a male perch then resort to the chlorine - renovation treatment.
