Help with upgrading brakes?

I’m thinking of upgrading my trek Farley 5 fat bike from rigid forks to manatou mastodon forks however I’ve been told il need to upgrade my rotors from 160mm to 180mm to fit. I’m running SRAM level brakes, will the larger rotors be a straight swap or will I need to get an adapter or something like that??

No adapter is needed, the caliper attaches directly to the fork which is made to a rotor with a minimum size of 180mm.

Great thanks for clearing that up! I’m new to this lol.
