Exposing live rock to air always has some risk because die-off can and will occur. I'd watch the new system for traces of ammonia, and keep water for changes on hand, as well as Prime or Amquel. I've moved tanks in the past, and had minimal issues. I was careful to keep the live rock in water as much as possible.

Is it beneficial to introduce new saltwater slowly over the span of a couple of weeks or do you think it would be better to just go all in and get the system going?
I did exactly as you mentioned above already.
