The best way is to setup a completely new tank, let it cycle, then move the livestock and dismantle the old one

The tanks are small, a few buckets is all you need. Plan on replacing sand in both tanks or washing the old stuff to avoid issues.

your tanks are small enough that you can take everything. I'd even take 40 gallons of water with you. That way, all you have to do is put some new sand in the tanks when you set it up in the new house and add your old water and rocks. You won't even have a cycle.
I've moved a 90 gal before from Westwood plateau to yaletown penthouse. Moved everything including the water. Everything up and running after about 8 hours.
