I broke down my 55g that I am selling to a friend and put all of the live sand into a tupperwear container and made sure it was covered in water. Is there anything else I need to do for this sand or is it going to ''die''
 
yeah, put a powerhead in there to insure that it's oxegenated.
 
Depending on How deep your sand bed was, once disturbed, it is toast. I would wash it nice with some salt water and treat it as fresh sand. Though seeding will be much faster in the new setup.
 
Yep, it's going to suffer considerably since it is now much much deeper than it was. BUT, a powerhead will increase your chances of survival.
