I don't have sand anymore but when I did I always vacuumed during water changes.
If you have a shallow sand bed (~ <2") you should gravel vac. I would vac at least a portion with every water change.
If you have an established deep sand bed (~ >4") you do not want to disturb the anaerobic bacteria and should not gravel vac.
