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.

100% agree with the bolded statement.
I don't keep NPS, I keep mostly sps, but I still live by heavy filtration and I'm trying to raise my nutrients by dosing some nitrate and phosphate. It sounds crazy when you say it like you just did... lol. And maybe it is! I have my reasons for doing it this way, I'm hoping my fish load will catch up and I can stop dosing without changing anything else.
