IM BACK!,update and advice for my new tank

[TESS]

Hello im back, my first tank cycled a week ago all 8 platies are fine and ive added 2 sucking loaches which are fine too,also 6 platies are STILL pregnant and im awaiting the frys arrival soon.
I have final got the money for my new tank after counting endless 1ps and 2p coins and changing them at asda coinstar today i got £100! ,the tank and stand cost £150 but will get the rest and the tank at the weekend.
I just wanted to ask as i am now going to do a fishless cycle in my new tank, can i add some old tank water from my other tank aswell as some gravel to help the cycle along a bit?. I realy want to do the cycle pretty quick as my fish are getting bigger not to mention fatter (pregnant) .
Thankyou

the water won't do too much, but the gravel will help. could you also run the new filter on the cycled tank? that will help colonize the new filter media quickly, maybe in like a week or so, but i am not sure of that timeline! or you could just take the new cartridge and squeeze it in with the old one (if there is room)
