Are you going to stick it directly in the sand? How deep is your sandbed? If you're wanting it on the sandbed, then that should be fine, but mount it to something like a piece of rock rubble and just submerge the rock.

I should say that’s how mine is, I have a small rock it’s attached to that I buried in the sand bed.
 
I kept my torch on the sand and it loved it. I wound up moving it to the rocks after I bought an elegance coral and didn’t see too big a difference. I think either is good as long as it’s moderate lighting and low to moderate flow.
