maybe clean the hell out of it (all the sand!), dose with hydrogen peroxide, then do a 5-day total blackout.
worked great for me. I had a nasty diatom then dino episode.
now I use a flocculant (Brightwell Aquatics Clarify-SW) 2 days before a very aggressive sand bed cleaning. It gets a lot of crap to settle out of the water and down into the sand. Then get aggressive with the siphon. My tank went from disaster mode to being so crystal clear people ask me how I do it.
Good luck! Don't give up!
