For me, NPS are not for utility filtration. They are for “beauty”.

NPS require specific live food. The whole point to natural filtration is to recycle nutrients and feed live food. It sounds compatiable to me.

Many successful NPS keepers drip photo and roitefers, then strip nutrients from water with powerful protein skimmers. To each his own. Beauty is to the eyes of the beholder.
