Well I'm a huge fan of bare bottom tanks. People say to me," it's not natural looking without sand". Like anything in aquariums is natural ! Glass box with artificial salt, artificial lighting ...etc !
Remember:
"BB is different than a sandbed because you are relying on immediate exportation instead of delayed. With BB
detritus shouldn't settle and it can be removed via: siphoning,
skimmer, filter socks etc. A sandbed may be thought as a temporary holding area for the detritus until it is exported. Yet the sandbed does breakdown
some of the detritus."
