I think the easiest way to achieve a bare bottom without ripping down your tank would be to siphone the sand out. When I had a cyano problem I attached a long rigid tube to my hose so I could control where I was sucking. You'll be left with a bit of sand under rocks but it will work its way out eventually.
Why have you decided to go bare bottom if you don't mind me asking?
