ある (aru) is a group 1 verb, but the conjugation of aru is an exception, the negative form of aru is ない (nai), not aranai, Ok? and aru in negative past tense is なかった(nakatta).
And いる (iru) is a group 2 verb and his conjugation is like a common verb in group 2 we learned before. いる in negative become いない (inai) and become いなかった (inakatta) in negative past tense. Be careful because there is a verb with same pronounciation with iru means "need" and this iru is a group 1 verb, so that the conjugation between iru (exist) and iru (need) are different. The only way to identify these verbs is in the Kanji. iru which means "to need" is written with kanji 要る and iru which means "exist" is written with kanji 居る and commonly this iru is written in hiragana いる. The following table is the conjugation of aru and iru which means "exist or there is/are".
