That should work and if not - find new larger grain sized sand for the top layer. I hear play sand works well for this but you need to clean it really good. I don't know about that personally - i'm testing it in a tank right now actually and it seams ok so far but i haven't tested the water yet.
not me
You should get rid of the sand and replace it with shells. They are easier to clean and will not ruin your filter moter.
Clean the filter thoroughly,and then add a sponge pre-filter to the intake.
the undergravel filter or other filters being used? If it is the undergravel filter sand has a tendency to clog them it the only problem with using that type of filter with sand as substrate the good thing is sand is easily vaccumed because the dirt and watse just sits right on top of it and just slowly runn your syphon vaccuum over it to remove the waste. If you are talking about your other filter then do what PeeTee said and add a sponge over the filter intake.
