That is a heavy bio-load, and with 3 feedings a day, ya, you might get a nitrate problem.

I had 2 tangs that grazed on tank stuff, a pair of clowns and a chromis. I feed once per day with mysis and added about a 2" x 4" strip of nori for the tangs.
Honestly, some of the nicest tanks I've seen used only a skimmer and reactor, good lighting, minimal feedings and were with or without sand. Sand never appeared to be the deciding factor in a nice tank, rather stability, frequent water changes and minimizing nutrient input.
