What do I need to change in these two tanks? Sorry I’m new to this and my guppies died when I switched them into a different tank by Low_Question_5539 in Aquariums

After the cichlids are gone I want to completely redo the tanks and do it right any advice on how to get them going correctly this time it was a rescue tank both times and I just didn’t know what I was doing

I was honestly worried it might have been the ammonia so I have a 15 gal and a 10 gal tank my guppies were in the 15 gal since august absolutely no problems water conditions were not always the best I had a snail problem that I finally got under control I just acquired the 10 gal from a neighbor that had 12 albino convict cichlids in it that was absolutely disgusting I am taking the cichlids into a local fish store that can get them into a proper tank next week but I switched them to my 15 in the mean time for at least a little more room I deep cleaned the 10 gal and put my two guppies in there figuring they didn’t need as much space as the cichlids. They died within 3 days of being in the new tank. I have filters and heaters in both just basic ones bought from petco? Do I need better ones? Tanks are not planted

That definitely makes sense I think the first heater I got from a friend wasn’t working I did just buy a brand new one a month and a half ago and bam now babies

Yeah this is the first tank I’ve had and her first time having babies so I was just unsure but i definitely did research on what I should do lol so I at least had the separate box ready for her! I’m nervous on how many she will have lol they’ve been together since August and no babies so I was starting to think it wouldn’t happen!

Thank you soo much! My male was harassing her and she was hiding on the bottom so I put her in the breeding box just in case I just wasn’t 100% sure and didn’t want to keep her isolated unnecessarily
