In RomaFan's case, water is already being changed and it's not helping, so the source is very active and removing the source needs to happen first, then a massive water change afterwards!

This is very true.
If it were me, I would vacuum up as much of the sand as I could, while removing it, then complete a 90% waterchange.
High nitrates like that in such a small system should be manageable.
Have you checked the nitrates of the water out of the tap?
