I added about 40 lbs of LR to my existing 180 a few months back. No issues at all, other than the fact that I was an idiot and didn't notice a few vermitid snails and now the entire tank is littered with them.

I agree with AquaPin. If both systems test stable then just make sure the SG matches on both tanks and transfer your LR. You may want to acclimate your corals or other livestock as if you were buying it from a LFS.
