I don't even run this, just bare bottom as I think the main reason for starboard is to make it look white. This is also suitable for lower flow softy tanks ect. if you don't want the maintenance of a sand bed. the only down fall is you can't have fish that need sandy bottoms. ie golbys.

Agreed. The acrylic I run or the starboard is solely to protect against rock falls and perhaps as some white bottom, but not for long. Nothing wrong with just using glass bottoms, as long as care is taken with rock placement.
