Nope, you don't need to do anything to control the pods. They will get eaten by almost every type of fish you add. And when they're not being eaten, they will be helping to keep the tank clean and your water quality high.

I hope you took out the dead damsel, not the crab. The fish might have died because your tank wasn't cycled at that point.
