The Stars are probably cleaning up around the zoanthids or catching and eating whatever is bothering or cleaning.
May we see a pic of the Zoanthids to try to help you figure out why they are not doing well?
Also post a pic of the entire tank and tell us the Alk and Ca levels.
Is anything else doing poorly?

I haven't seen any little brittles in my tank.

yeah these are a great part of your clean up crew and are harmless. Every healthy tank has a bunch, you just normally don't see them.

Also harlequins will not touch brittle stars....

Brandon - I don't think they are bad you. I have a ton of them in my tank and they are great clean up crew.
