Best siphon/vacuum to physically remove sand from tank?

[Fresh2Salt95]

I set up a 29G quarantine tank and didn't realize I wasn't supposed to put substrate in.

I have 3-4 inches of Arag-Alive I need to siphon out.

What should I use?

I can't use my normal siphon connected to the sink because the sand might destroy the plumbing. I have 5 gallon buckets.

Put a filter bag secured to the hose that way you can separate the sand from the water
