Leopard gecko on bare bottom tank?

Hey guys,
I was just thinking....Why couldn't I have my leopard gecko on a bare bottom tank instead of the reptile carpet that the mealworms stick to or the paper towels that run out really fast....So could I keep him on bare bottom? Or does he need some kind of padding on the floor of his tank?

I would definitely adjust the thermostat accordingly....Wouldn't want a toasted gecko!

I was thinking about putting a couple layers of paper towels just under his hides so he has a little padding while he sleeps/rests. I might just try this bare bottom thing and observe him to see if he slides around...I didn't think of that so thanks for bringing that possibility to my attention :)
