Yeah, that's a nasty title. Should you remove what? The dead babies or the survivors? And what else will be in the tank with the fry?

Well in the breeder tank is a small plastic plant with a few live and dead. how would i take out dead ones?

With a net. Or a turkey baster. But get them out quickly as you're likely to get an ammonia spike.

A simple siphon using a piece of air line will easily remove your dead fry. If you leave them in that trap they will pollute the water and you will lose the rest of your fry.
