Just siphon it out. Get 3/4 ID tubing and remove as much as you need to. I don't think you will cause any problems if you are simply removing a portion of the sand bed.

Good Luck!

I've done this plenty of times with no ill effects. As long as you simply siphon it out and dont stir up any large areas into the water column you will be fine.
