Can gravitons be detected?

[Josiah]

Is the fact that it detects gravitational waves, means that its also stopping it?

No.

Could you use that information to help come up with an idea of how to stop the gravitational wave?
If the graviton is absorbed/ makes the electrons jump to a different level, does that mean it gets stopped?

If by "stop the gravitational wave" you mean "absorb all its energy", no.

A gravitational wave is not just one graviton. Indeed, we don't even know if "graviton" is a correct model of gravitational waves at any level, as I pointed out in post #3 of this thread. We have no evidence of any quantum aspects of gravitational waves and no prospect of getting any any time soon.

Any gravitational wave detectable on Earth with current technology would consist of an immense number of gravitons:

Thus, the effect on the overall wave of "blocking" (absorbing) a single graviton would be utterly negligible.
But if you do yearn to fully stop a $200\,\text{Hz}$ gravitational wave carrying $2\,\text{mW/m}^2$ you "merely" need to come up with a clever way to absorb $10^{28}$ gravitons per second per meter-squared!
Good luck with that.
