Trying to find arrival records

Surnames: Olofsson/Palm/Palmer/Persson
I'm trying to find the arrival records of my great grandparents, Per Olofsson/Palm/Palmer and Maria Persson who immigrated to the US from Sweden. Per's name in Sweden was Per Olofsson. He went into the Swedish Army and changed his name to Per Palm. Once he arrived in the US, he changed his name to Peter Olsson Palmer. I think they arrived at New York in Nov/Dec 1889 as they are registered as leaving from Denmark on 11/6/1889. I've searched Ancestry, Castle Garden site, googled, etc., but no luck in finding the ship they arrived on or the date. Can anyone assist? Please use email MohamKJ@hotmail.com. Thank you.
