Angry Asterina stars

I've just spent hours picking out hundreds of these evil little things with tweezers. I have noticed that the ones that are eating my zoas and star polyps are a little different color than the ones on the glass. Is there anything other than a harlequin shrimp that will eat them, maybe some kind of wrasse? Also it would have to leave my serpent stars alone.

He is correct, other than harlequins, it's manual removal.

Sell them as a GSP cure. You'll make a killing.
