Have them put in the largest bag they have. 1/3 full of water. The fish will be fine for 24 hours if they needed to be. Good choice with the Bolivians. They are way more hardy than the blue rams and once they settle in thier color will be almost as nice. One male to a couple females is prefered. Males will have a much brighter color and more pointed anal fins (not 100% accurate, but it might help).
As for the blues with angels. It shouldn't be a problem. The problem is finding quality blue rams. Most are from Southeast Asia, and have very high mortality rates (supposedly due to hormone and antibiotic injection). Don't put them in the tank untill it is at least 2-3months old (they do much better in a muture tank). Make sure the ones you buy have been in the dealer's tank for at least a week. Both bolivians and blues will appreciate a little higher temp (around 79-80) if you can swing it. This temp is fine for most other tropicals as well.
