 If janitors are insufficient to keep substrate clean, then the Big Janitor can assist with more little people. 

 

 

My entire recommendation is based on the assumption that there is no clean up crew (other than the micro kind) in the refugium. I have sand in my display and would never consider going bare bottom since I don't like the look.  If @AlmightyJoshaeus is going to have a crew of sand sifters in the refugium then great.  If not, I stand by my "little to no sand" comment since a sand bed that is never stirred is more trouble than it is worth (unless it is a deep sand bed).
