Most corals do fine as low as 76f, so it would be worth a shot
No, this fish death had nothing to do with O2. Tank was super oxygenated. This was MI dying because it's a cloudy Friday.

As for temp, SPS growth is near 0 at 76 from my previous tank running at 76 O2 difference over 3 degrees is likely negligible
