Bristlenose plecos would be fine with all of those fish. They are the best tank cleaners, I never have to wipe my tank glass down anymore. These guys enjoy the occasional frozen bloodworms but need a diet full of vegetables and algae. It's preferable to have a cave or a piece of driftwood that they can hide in. I'm looking into possibly trying to ship them.

if packed correctly the bn's should last for a few days.
this time of year tho you have to deal with cooler weather.. and acclimating the fish slowly.

basically don't feed for a day or two pack in clean tank water, add a drop or two of ammo lock add air. or )2 pack well. I make insulated containers with insulating foam from hardware stores of it you have an old styro cooler you can build one. you may want to add heat pack as it is cooling this time of year ..
shipping should be next day tho for highest survival either ups or fed ex( I like fed ex) you can use express mail for packages. usps priority is hit or miss but I have had most of my packages arrive safely within 2-3 days.

Shipping looks do-able. Have to work it all out yet and need some time.
