Mine are doing fine at 80-82 F (26-27C). Moreover, 
grindals do better at higher temps rather then in cold. I think that your
problem rather concerns white worms: 
they like cold, around 65F and I lost my culture too, 
when it got too wam this summer... If you want, 
I can check max temps in the encyclopedia of live foods
tomorrow, and send you an e-mail.
