With the pH and temp very close, I wouldn't think that'd be a problem.
It'll be easier to catch the fish out of the 30 if you drain it most of the way down before you even try...
So, I've decided I wanted to take my guys from their 30 gallon breeder and put them into a 55 gallon bare bottom. I've been using that 55 to age my water. Would the best course of action to moving them simply be fill tank, heat to correct temperature, transfer my filters and drop them in around the same time I'd be doing a water change ?

I've been making it a point to make them comfortable with hands. I can slowly approach any of them and pick them up without any trouble.
I figured it was a really dumb question, as all the water that goes into their tank comes from this one, I just wanted to more or less check if there would be any issue just swapping the filters over.
Your plan is fine

Yep, sounds fine. I've moved fish around in my tanks more times than I can count over the years.

Yea, I really figured it would not be any trouble at all, but as my first 7, I'm going overly worrying about everything.
The finest breeder in the US told me once that he moves the parents and leave the fry alone.
