The idea behind the staroard is to be able to run more flow - 50x turnover and up is what a lot of people are aiming for. Seems to be very popular technique for the sps obsessed...

And according to some people, even if the starboard did allow some detritus to accumulate underneath it, it would be an insignificant amount compared to having a sandbed trapping the detritus.
Just what I've read....
