Possibly, but I don't know if that would be a key consideration when deciding whether or not to go with a sand bed.
Perhaps what one would really be wanting to look at is that the sand is a moderate filtration bonus versus an added variable to cause problems. Personally I think in a 46 gal I would go with a bit of sand for aesthetic reasons.
