Would there be any drawback to trying them in the 40 and moving them to a larger tank if they don't spawn?
TIA,

You should be fine with the 40g. The place you got them from likely had them in a 20g cube before they sold them to you. The important part is being able to keep the water parameters up, which you should be able to do with 60g volume, all that LR you have in the sump and a good skimmer.
