Help with Brittle Starfish

I purchased 2 green brittle starfish last year. A couple of months ago I noticed that there were lots of little green brittle starfish everywhere. The guy at my LFS said they dont recomment green brittles for reef tanks because they have been known to eat fish. Well lets just say that I have had many fish disappear unexplained. Mostly the were damsels so not to expensive. Should I get all of them out and how. Anyway I have a 110g tall with lots of rock reaching and grabbing is tough to do any suggestions on getting them out. What should I do with them?

I have a huge green brittlestar, and have never lost a fish to him. I guess others have had problems though. I would try to prove it was him before 86 ing him

I probably have 20 or thirty small ones plus two big ones. Soon the little ones will be big. No one has ever had problems.
