What's Your Bare Bottom Like?
Heh. I know what you're thinking.
But really...I was wondering for those who have bare bottom tanks, what does the bottom actually look like? Is it covered in coralline or greenish algae, or what? Just curious--thanks in advance!

Drew, I'll take a picture of my BB tank and post it tomorrow.
The difference is kinda subtle if you paint it white. You get patches of coralline here and there. Bonus: More light is reflected due to white bottom.

do most people leave the bottom bare and stack the rock on top of the glass? or do you put something like starboard on the bottom to protect the glass???

Have BB with rock directly on glass.
Mostly coralline covered except for the corners and areas under the rock. Not to get into the negatives of sand beds (myths or facts) but I personally still believe a maintanied SB looks the best (plus can do that shrimp/goby thing).
