| You can certainly use the liverock and water provided you take out the water you want to use prior to removing the liverock and making a mess. I don't see any reason why you could not be successful with this transition.

thank you for the quick response !
the reaction of live rock in the new place is the main worry ..I will support the new system with a 50 gal tank old water and some biological surfaces in it , for the first 15 days – is it good idea ?-

That sounds like a fine idea. You could even make that 50 a permenant fixture by making it a refugium or a frag tank.
