hi,
Did you visit that link above, it looks pretty normal to me , I see a worm trails in the sand so you proably have many worms already.
if you have zero nitrite and no problems I would'nt try and fix it maybe alittle more sand to balance the low spots out.. I have a lot of live rock in my tanks but thats me...

I have bubbles in my piecies of PVC pipe under a screen and 5+ inches of sand over that in my sump and my water levels are pretty good. Thats where the anerboic bugs like to grow out of the oxinated water the bubbles pop ,if they reach the surface, and don't contaminate the water its nitrogen gas a by product of nitrite reduction..as long as your worms stay healthy the sand will be good..
