I just got home from the place I’m moving to. I set up the 125g and have it filled with water and I added one 25 pound bag of new gravel to it. I left it at that. Now I gotta move forward with this, I’m using all of the gravel out of my 90g which is already cycled obviously but I needed one more bag to make up the difference in length between the 2 tanks. Should I move all my gravel next to the new tank and leave the fish in the 90g with no gravel until I’m ready to completely move out and move the fish? I’m most likely going to be out 95% by the 1st of the month

i think either way is fine... the only concern is when you move the gravel out, likely you need to do water change due to the dirt accumulated below the gravel...

personally i will move the gravel out first and do WC first rather than on the day itself
 
That’s what I was thinking I’ll move the gravel in the next day or two along with one of the 4 filters then do a WC on my 90g so the fish stay good with no gravel until I get around to moving them to the new place into the 125g with the rest of the filters. when I set up the tank I used the API stress coat water conditioner because it’s all my LFS had when i went there today. I’m gonna order some PRIME for the next water change. Had some issues getting My python to work on the kitchen sink in the house I’m moving into but I managed to get it to kinda work on the bathroom sink. Any place to get adaptors for different sized faucets ?

I would take the part of the Python you are having a problem to your local hardware or home improvement store and show them what type of faucet it is you would need connector for.
 
I’ll give that a shot tonight, I’m planning on moving the gravel and one filter tonight. I need to find a 72” LED light this weekend before I start moving too much stuff over
