I think the air-line or turkey baster idea is the way to go.
I've got to get the grow-out tank prepped first and then I'll move them as soon as it's ready.
That was my first thought, but there just isn't enough room in the back compartment for that, the chamber they're in is about 2 inches by 4 inches.
For reference this is what we're dealing with:
They're in the first chamber with the inlets.
An explanation of my situation before I get to my predicament.
I have 3 Dwarf Puffers in a heavily planted Fluval Flex 57, they've been in there in since the start of October 2019 and they were tiny when I got them. Wasn't quite expecting Puffer babies quite so soon or even at all, tbh. Spotted...
Dwarf Pufferfish fry, I'm guessing anything it could be anything from an hour old to a week old, was not aware of any eggs being dropped or of any successful coupling either.
I have one, can't remember the brand and I think it cost me about £7 shipped. If you search in USB air pump on Amazon, you'll find a ton of them. I have it running a tiny sponge filter in my snail breeding jar and you have to walk up close to it to hear it and then it's mainly the bubbles from...
I'm sorry to be that person, but I can't not say it, your tank is way way too small for an Angelfish. IMO it's also too small for the guppies.

Well, a week isn't really long enough to cycle a tank and you need to do a bit more than just let the water cycle through it. You need to read up on the Nitrogen cycle and also about fish-in cycle, because that is what you're dealing with now.
This is a link for a fish in cycle - Fish In...
Just vacuum like normal, you'll get some that goes through the vac. I usually pour the last of my bucket through a sieve when dumping the water and then put any sand back into the tank.
I keep my Betta in the tank whilst doing the water change, it's probably less stressful than catching him in a net and putting him in a different container.
Your water change schedule sounds fine, you can tweak it once you get a proper testing kit.
