I am getting a 35 gallon tank and I currently have a 5 gallon (2 guppies) and 15 gallon tank (3 barbs) up and running both cycled. If I move most of the decor and filters to the new tank should I be OK?
 
Should be fine. Just check levels for the next few days, you might see a mini-cycle, should be easily managed with an extra pwc or 2.

As long as you use the same substrate (always keeping it wet) and same filter media you might not even see a cycle. Don't worry about using the same water as it will do nothing for you.
