My verticle welding forge has a S.S. sauce pan floor (sans handle) that I fill with cat litter or vermiculite, what ever is on hand. Works as an insulator and a cleanable flux trap.
I've used the ceramic tile in my horizontal forge same as you.
The tile should hold up to the heat with no problem, not sure what the flux will do to it.
