My first tank was set up like yours, and I too wanted just sugar sand... I actually ended up sifting the sand through a net to separate the coarse stuff out of it.... took me a few hours as I had over 125 lbs total... but I ended up with what I wanted... I sifted the sand in a bucket of change water to minimize particulates floating in the main tank... it STILL ended up real cloudy!
