Wow, quite surprised how many use eggcrate.

I myself use fine araganite, and then placed my rock on it... When creating my landscape I would work/wiggle the base/bottom rocks into the sand so the were basically at the glass bottom, and then the sand is all around the base.

Nice thing with this is that I can syphon my sand, of which I have been doing for about 6-8 months now, since I was having coral issues.

And I guess like others stated, I can go bare bottom if I wish. I won't, but I have that choice.

I guess if you are concerned about falling rock, breaking your bottom pane of your tank, then it would be a matter of making sure everything is secure.
