Whoa that's a good way to boil some fish! lol
Both these species are usually fine as long as the temps are in the high 70s to mid 80s.
As long as you drip-acclimate them, they also are pretty adaptable, once intially acclimated. Getting good stock can be very difficult, though.
Dechlorinated water is a must, along with 0 ammonia, 0 nitrItes, and nitrAtes under 20ppm at most. They need established tanks. Rainwater is ideal.
