Brittle star trap?

[Glass Algae]

Got this GSP from my lfs and it has some brittle stars in it I've seen at least 2 or 3 in the back flesh of the gsp.

I don't wanna remove them I'd just like them to leave the gsp as I wanna make it flush to the wall and I would still like the benefits of the stars. Just wanna move them to the rocks.

Any idea would be great!

the gsp on a plug?

I would just let them be. They’ll find there way to the rocks or back behind the gsp if you move them

I tried that already haha they're GRIPPIN I don't wanna hurt em by yanking them out but they're also fairly elusive to even get a chance to grab

They will recover. Aim a powerhead at them and baste them. You can also just use tweezers. Stars regenerate. correct?

Happened to get some new long angled tweezers today. Next time I see it peeking I'm gunna try and grab em put it on the rocks. The basting doesn't work well cause the bskc of the gsp has folds that turn into little tube caves for them to nook and grip. Have to try and grab em.

I didn't know if maybe there was a tech with making a trap like bristle worm traps etc

Leave it out of water and the stars will crawl out within a few minutes.
