Moving fish into new tank

Hi, so, are all the survivors together now, or in separate tanks, waiting to be moved together to the bigger one? Sorry, didn't quite catch the drift of your post

More information/data will help us sort this out.
How long have you had the various fish? Did you cycle the aquarium, and if yes, how? Do you have live plants?
If you can take tests, what are the numbers for ammonia, nitrite and nitrate? Also the pH? What is the GH of your tap water?
Assuming you use a conditioner, which brand? Are any other substances/additives entering the tank(s)?

Survivors are in same tank (20 gal) waiting to go into 30 gal tank. Started new tank using quick start and Aqua Safe Plus conditioner. It is a week out and all test strips come out good. Just need to know if I should stagger their move into new tank.

Bought 3 Rummy nose from fish store. Had disease that killed them and the neons who were in the quarantine tank…must have somehow cross contaminated to my 55 gallon and lost most of my small fish…emptied tank and moved survivors into a 20…now ready to move them into a 30…have Guoramis (5) , rasboras (10) and silver tipped tetras (2). How many can I move at a tIme? New tank is ready. This has been an awful experience. feel terrible about the loss of my fish. Now have separate everything’s for each tank.
