I bought a ginormous pair of tweezers from a local frag swap that come in handy for many different things. It's about 18+ inches long lol.
 
Can you siphon them out? I can usually get little snail shells, urchin spines, loose mushrooms with a rigid piece of acrylic tube and hose. If they are big they usually will stick to the end of the hose and block it where I can lift them out.
