Replace the sand.

bleach the rocks, but not the sand.

Put the sand in a bucket, rinse under tap water, and empty it out, over and over again until you run clear water into the sand. Its a lot of work and takes a couple of hours, but you will end up with basically "new" sand. Or, if it seems like too much work, ditch the sand and buy more new sand (which should always be rinsed anyway).
