How to catch brittle stars?

Baby brittle stars are a great clean up crew and their populations ebb and swell with what food is available. If their numbers are overwhelming then you have an excess food issue that they are helping to keep under control.

Well I will keep this in mind and watch closely then

they havn't been in more then a week or two for some.

If they are an issue in the future I'll try and determine what the problem is, for now I'll enjoy watching them

I've got lots of them in my 20gal. They're great for cleaning up and don't bother my corals at all.
