2-3ice cubes in bag to cool the 1g to where it needs to be is no harm done.

It takes
exactly the same amount to cool or heat. If you had 1 gallon of water that was 70 degrees and added a gallon of 75 degree water, I'd be willing to be any amount of money that it will be 72.5 degrees when combined, or even your moderator status, against my permanent banishment from this forum.
On the other hand if you add a gallon of 65 degree water to that same 70 degree gallon, the temperature will be exactly 67.5 degrees. Being the son of a high school physics teacher, I know this with much certainty.
I stand by the belief the ice will do more harm than the 80 degree water to either fish.
