Rocks placed directly on glass (no sand)? Anyone?
has anyone placed rocks directly into the bottom of the tank (BB), with no eggcrate?
any complaints to that? |

If you don't care about the glass getting scratched then its no problem.
I'm tempted to buy some egg crate myself. |

My rocks are on the glass for stability. I added a few inches of sand after placing the rocks on the glass just for looks.
