I moved in July of last year and it took me a month to reset a tank up. My sand sat in 5 gallon pails in a hot garage the entire time. I rinsed it with the garden hose and then let my tank cycle. No more than 3 weeks and my water was fine. My rock was all cured in my small tanks so only my sand had issues.
If you are able to let the tank cycle it will be fine!
