How do you rid your tank of chitons?

I think I spelled it right. Bug like creatchers with armor plating and they look like dinosours.
They are in my buddies tank and he wants them out.
Sorry no pic.
Anyone know?

He tells me they are creating havok. I will show him the article.
Thanks.

I have some of these in my tank as well and they do have capibility to destroy .For instance my rock is being burrowed out and they ate about half of my green star polyops within 2 months.I really never noticed them because they are so camouflage .I've taken out a few using my wifes tweezers, ha ha she never new.But I personally agree that they are bad.
