Do not use the same sand. You will stir up nutrients and have another cycle. I would use 50% tank water and 50% new water in the change. Everything else should be fine.

i was thinking about just buying some more sand and using my old sand to seed it.

That will work. I wouldn't use any more than a cup though.
