the bacteria might have been effected by the cold temps and if the fish died, there was no ammonia to feed them either
if it was me i'd get the tank back up to temp and start adding clear ammonia with no additives(maybe to 2 or 3ppm) and then test it everyday to see if your bacteria is recovering...in others words that it is using ammonia and u see that nitrites dont start showing up after about 1 1/2 to 2 weeks
if it turns out that u dont have any bacteria in there anymore at least you'll be on your way with a fishless cycle
