I didn't really experience any of that with my tank. If a large wrasse decides to go on a digging expedition sure it will kick up sand, but it is far from always in the column... sometimes would be a better word. Be sure to rinse the sand vigorously before hand to get rid of the smallest particles.
if you have a sand sifter/dweller you shouldnt have anything but oolitic sand anyways. BB might be okay for most benthic dwellers, but anything more coarse than oolitic calcium based sand would rip up sifters.
