diseased coral?

I put a few corals from a tank with no fish, into a reef tank with fish and my fish died? Can corals have diseases? and if so what should i do? Thanks

It is possible. Unlikly but possible. Did the fish have any signs of parasites / Ick?

I would come more near thinking it was something on the coral(s) than the coral themselves. I Never heard of corals carrying diseases.
