I have lost pretty well all my snails Astrea Snails, Margarita Snails,
Cerith Snails. This happened after getting a few new snails which I
bought to try and control a outbreak of cyanobacteria/red slime. Did
the outbreak kill the snails? Should I get turbos instead? Could it
have been a snail virus?

Any help would be great.

I never get above 78 degrees, maybe 80 degrees max. Would temp affect
snails before it bleaches corals? All corals are doing fine. (soft and
hard)
