Maybe its because the air taken in from the air pump is toxic to fish. Try not to spray or use chemicals such as air fresheners, detergent etc near the pump. Hope this helps.

Can 4 guppies and 2 neon tetras go in a 2 gallon tank?

Yes, since Guppies and Neon Tetras are small fish (and stay small), there should be no problem with them living comfortably in a 2 gallon tank. You should add a little filter and air bubble combo to keep the water clean and aerated. Since these are tropical fish, you should also add a small heater and a thermometer. Goldfish do not need a heater but tropical fish do.
