In the rush to set up my new tank did it BB (bare glass) and in my opinion and for my tank it looks the sh*ts. If going BB suggesting to go either faux sand or starboard type stuff. Also don't forget by going BB can't get that neat shrimp/gobie pair.

My plan was alway to place in a 1" sugar size bed and have a remote DSB in the sump or refuge and this is still in the works.

On my first tank did similar to what your suggesting, eggcrate platforms for the rock and back fill with sand. Seemed to work well and considering the DSB was in the display, it saved me from burying 4-5" of rock.
