You should be good to go, just remember keep the tank temp constant, keep the water quality constant (and in good shape), and quarantine the new guys for awhile if possible to see if they are going to introduce anything new to the tank from themselves:%)heidi

Should not be a problem If you tank is empty only buy a few at a time. Also with your water store it for a week just in case the ICH came via the water supply.
