If your powerheads are placed properly and are of the right size you should have NO detritus building up. If you notice a spot, adjust your powerheads. I do notice detritus on top of the sand now and then, and when I see it I do suck it out during a waterchange and then adjust my powerheads, but by no means do I vacuum the sand.
