Hi everyone!
Because I like getting ahead of myself, I would like to ask if a tank needs to be recycled following my pilgrimage to college--a harrowing journey that will need about 5-6 hours (more time, if my parents decide to make some stops--i don't have a driver's license yet, hehe) of driving time.
Some details...
I would also appreciate any help regarding the tank/tank water transportation method (i.e. how i might transport the bae; whether I should leave some water in the tank itself for the plants).
Oh, I should definitely mention that my tank is not yet cycled (and the handsome guy living in an uncycled, smaller tank), so, in the postscript and non-obligatory spirit: how would I ammonia-source cycle a tank that has semi-aquatic/aquatic plants?
Thank you very much for your time!

Some details...
- one (1) 10 gallon tank
- a handsome betta fish
- some live plants
of the bamboo/vine varieties and possibly some actual aquatic plants
