I also *MIGHT* be able to get some gravel or something from a pre-established tank. However since its such a long trip I want to make sure I do it right.

Should gravel and water be what I am aiming for, or would a rock, piece of wood, plant, or other deco be more effective?

Then once I get home with it, should I just put it directly in my tank? Should I make sure there is some ammonia in the water before adding it? Would putting some of the established gravel near the BIO-FIBER in my filter (AquaTech 10/20) be more effective or should I put it just on top of my gravel?

Then how long should it take the bacteria culture to populate and I be able to add fish?

Boy that was alot of questions...
