Im on the same page on this.
I have some nassarius snails and conches to do the sifting.
Always had a sand bed never had issues with it. Flow has always been heavy since i am sps dom.
Never had an issue with sandstorms either.

Yeah sometimes things get in your tank and take over the place. Be careful when adding new rock/frags/Mari cultured. Sometimes the hitchhiker isn't a pest until it gets out of hand. Had a similar issue on my previous tank with spiroid worms they weren't bad, just ugly imo.

So far I like it but will see down the line lol if i do add sand it would be heavier. I just like the fact that is one less thing for me to do keeping a ULM system

I never worry about my sand bed in any tank. Have had deep sand beds set up for 17 years in one tank with out issues. I reused that in my new tank that is a couple years old now. It adds to the biodiversity in our tanks. Including the tube worms.
