Did something die? Tank sitter overfeeding?

did you leave some one else feeding your tank that was maybe a lot over zellous?

Hi Pete
If the sandbed is fairly fresh, then I would say that maybe it's still going through it's cycle. Sandbeds also go through a grow-in or established cycle just like water chemistry. If not, and over feeding was the case then I would perform some small water changes every week to clean up the water.

cheers, Rich
