    I'm sure that is fine. In fact, I think that most reefers have them on the sand bed. I put it on a rock because I read that they are more prone to pests when they are on the sand bed and that the biggest reason for clam death is messing up how and where the foot is connected. Just a couple less problems to worry about, I guess. Never killed one!
