What are your parameters?

The milk water happened to me once...called my LFS and he said my live rock was dead..I took it out and did water changers. I was lucky only lost 1 fish...good luck...

was the live rock you added cured
From what you said added 10lbs live rock than 4 hrs later things went south
would lead to me thinking rock was not fully cured throwing your tank into a mini cycle
sorry to see you loosing your stock it definitely sucks
as for water turning milky never seen that issue so have no idea on that sorry

Happened to me once but I'm sure my dog pissed on one off my died rocks I pulled out of my backyard

sounds like your rock was uncured and possibly contaminated (Milky Water). Test your water and see if you have an ammonia or nitrite spike
