Well I did it this time. I added a used CPR aquafuge to my 72gal bowfront. I had it running with just some liverock. someone sugessted a deep sand bed so i bought some live sand and added about 4 inches to the hang on back fuge. Well like a jackass i turned it on and i now have a whiteout. What do i do? Contiue to run pumps and power heads? Will this harm the fish or corals? any suggestions?

take it all out and go BB in the hob fuge.
Such a small size is not goign to provide any nitrate reduction - and will be a trap for detritus.
That's my opinion. I did the LS in a hob fuge and it just became a cyanobacteria farm. Trust me - don't go there.
Just put chaeto and then once a week flip the chaeto or prune.

I agree, let the sand settle. I would check your pumps too. I don't think that the sand is good for the pumps. Possible damage. Daily or every other day checking to ensure that the pumps is not clogged with debries is a good idea.
Make sure you get the sand off of any coral it will burn them up.
