Taking out rock for deep cleaning?

I was doing a deep cleaning today- as a foreword, I have a 30g cube and 20g fuge/sump, so it isn't as laborious taking out some rock. My goal is to get as much detritus as possible. I want to swish some rocks in a bucket from time to time. The zoa's I have seem pretty resilent to the washing.

I took out some rock, shook up some sand, vacumed out the low BB fuge, scrubbed some stuff, and swapped some water.

Do any of you all really 'shake up' the tank for a good cleaning?
