I view reef keeping as an artificial process.
Understanding nature and using that to create and maintain an artificial environment that will support the life we wish to keep is the reefing hobby. We certainly use techniques that take advantage of naturally occurring biological processes. I don't think we use those processes as the occur in the ocean though.
