The culprit is probably the addition of the new dead sand. I'm guessing its going through a mini-cycle again. Keep track of parameters and water changes with good source water.

"dead" sand or rather dry sand shouldn't cause any cycle. Nearly all dry sand we buy has very little organics, if any at all. IN other words, nothing to break down into ammonia.
