The reason I suggest this group is that I've seen them from my home in Sydney.

Last year I had a mate over with his 8" dob and my 17.5". This group of galaxies was visible both in my 17.5" and the 8". Unmistakeable. Just be patient. Don't forget to 'jiggle' a little the scope, it will help show up the faint glow if you can't see them at first.
