New to container succulents... need grouping help!

Picked up these miniatures over the last couple of weeks and have been letting them dry out so I can repot and change the soil into a more well draining mix. I am working on getting the ingredients for the gritty mix but need to repot asap because it seems like they are in a peat mix and are drowning. I'm currently using a mix of cactus/succulent mix and perlite (1:2). I will also be taking several overseas trips in the next couple of months so need watering to be more infrequent than the gritty mix would require.

I was hoping to do 2 community bowls (1 8" and 1 5") and then individual pots. Would love any advice on which plants would do best in a shared bowl vs. individual pots. All plants will be indoors and slowly introduced to being near a south facing window.

PS. Rescued the cactus from death... its two friends had shriveled up into nothing and somehow, this one managed to stay alive.

Any tips would be appreciated! Thanks. :)
