it being such a small tank I would just drain it to the sand lvl and carry it put the door like so. fish in a bucket. bring 10 gallons of old water with to put back and a new 10 gallons to put in. you can keep the fish in a bucket up to 6 hours if well aerated. when you go to put the water back In the tank put a plastic bag down and slowing pour the water on the bag so it doesn't stir the sand up. wait for it to clear up reasonably to re acclimate the fish. also keep small heater with fish while in bucket while doing all this.

I wouldn't wash. just my opinion is that if you wash it you would clean all the good bacteria out of the sand. if it was 4 plus years old then it would be an opportunity to clean it but this case it doesn't sound like it's a big deal

I agree. Keep the same sand. Rock and sand can go into the same bucket.
