Suspend a piece of zucchini in the water column with a string for a few minutes. once you see shrimps on it, scoop it up with a net. Keep repeating this until you have caught all or most of your shrimps.

Or use a small hose a syphon up the shrimp. not the kindest way, but it doesnt hurt them and you can be very selective with your aim.
