Tap Water in Reef Tank

OK so I had to break down my tank since I moved to another state. I just started my cycle 2 weeks ago but made a huge mistake by filling my 44 gallon with tap water. I had a zillion boxes and couldn't find my RODI unit. Now that I've finally found my unit I can empty and start my cycle over with RODI water. I'm wondering if my sand and rock have absorbed too much "tap crap" already and would still continue to release yucky metals for the life of the tank.

Any suggestions would help! Thanks!
