Transfering Dsb Creatures-any Ideas

I have a question for all of you.
I just got a new tank (100 gallon long) and will be moving everything from my 65 gal tall.
Of course I will cycle the tank with LR first before I even think about transfering the fish, but what about all the life in the DSB??
I know I cannot save every pod and worm etc, but I have so much life (baby snails, micro-stars, big pods, spaghetti worms, bristle worms, brittle stars, everything you can imagine!) and I heard it is not good to move the sand to the new tank due to stirring up things in the DSB that shouldn't be stirred up.
Should I somehow strain the sand??
By the way, this is a FOWLR tank. Thanks for any and all ideas.
I really dont want to murder all the little creatures!
