I just replaced my old canister filter with a new wet/dry filter. After I did this my golden goby, yellow tang, and mushroom coral died. My christmas tree coral and brain coral shrivled up and look as though they have little chance of surviving. The water has become very white. Is there something that I can do to fix this problem and possibly prevent another death. I could use all the help I can get!

When you switch filter, you really need to be careful, and monitor the ammonia/nits levels. Sounds like you shocked your system, and not realizing it until livestock started to die... 
Take a look at the A/N/N level, and do a water change with good water and see if you can stop further damage.... both canister and wet/dry filter are not the best filtration if you want to keep corals, but that is something that you need to think about later after your system stabilized.... good luck.
