I tried having a bit of sand with BB, didn't work for me as it blew all over the place. Eventually I gave up and siphoned it all out. Now I have a good sized patch of ricordia that are taking over and I quite like the look of it, its only at about 25-30% of the front side of the tank but looks pretty good. I was never successful with a sandbed so BB has been my only option.

Ideally for a SPS tank, BB is best, but I also really wanted more of an overall reef display, so i used about an inch of sand. It's completely blown out around the front, and the back areas are good, but covered in broken frags, snail shells, etc, that I can't reach, and it kinda looks like crap. Not sure I wouldn't do it again, but I used eggcrate under everything and can't siphon it out now.
