Can you do a full front picture of the tank? The water looks really murky… did you kick up a bunch of dust putting it in?

Seems like a bacterial bloom which may have consumed all the oxygen in the tank and killed your livestock. I would get some aeration in your tank, add carbon if you don’t have it already, and work a few water changes.
