Microbrittle star trap

[Alexopora]

I have a tank that is filled with micro brittle stars in the sandbed and I am thinking of taking some to introduce to my other tank so that they can populate the sand bed there. Is there a method to trap as many as possible so its easier to transport them to the other tank instead of sucking them up with a turkey baster one by one?

Can you drag a net through the sand and pick them out then dump the sand back?
