You're always going to have some die offs... depending on how bad but you could rinse it in some water change water and try and get all the dead stuff off before you put it in the tank. Watch for a spike in parameters right away as well and be prepared for a water change or two.
Would I need to rinse it some water before I put it in my tank if there is nothing in the tank?
