There has been a shift. In the past it wasn't easy to bottom out N and P if not impossible. You older guys know exactly what I'm talking about.
RODI equipment is better.
Salt is better.
Bio Pellets.
Scrubbers.
Fuges.
Wave makers and flow.
Aquascapes. No more walls.
The ease of INFORMATION sharing. Which is probably the biggest difference.
Better filters and media.
Even the availability and diversity of corals. They do use N and P. So having more increases N and P filtration.
So I wouldn't say it was a paradigm. More like an evolution that has led to this new epiphany? Or understanding?
