Its only to strong if your substrate is being blown around. Filter? What filter? You don't need a filter. Or are we talking about a Skimmer here?

im upgradeing to a 20g or 30g no sure yes and using the 10g i have now as a refugium do snce imkeepng my cycled water and all all my equiment is gonna be used for the other tank im gonna by the salt water mixed aready and im gonna get some more sand my rocks are cured with purple all over do i need to cycle before puting the fish and corals in from my 10g or just make sure that the water is in good condition

You'll proably run into a mini cycle, and that will be from the substrate being ruffled about. You might want to rinse the substrate out before adding it to your new tank, this will keep it to a minimal. But run it bare for at least 10 days, this will give you an idea if your going to run into a mini cycle or not.
