Hey everyone so I have a 40 nuvo with a 15 frag tank next to it, the prob I am running into is my cords look like spaghetti in my cabinet and it's driving me nuts. I run everything off apex and I want to see how you guys organize all your stuff I want easy access to it all but have limited space. Any ideas or pictures of ideas would be great. Here's a pic of my set up so you know what I got going on .

Wire chases/guards make it look very pretty, but what I don't like about them is when you need to remove equipment to be cleaned or replaced. Makes that process difficult. So what I did, and it's not real pretty, is to use plastic conduit clamps that easily fit the larger plug ends. These were screwed in with stainless screws every foot or so to hold the wires.

You can see three of these clamps in the top portion of this picture:




For wires not being removed with frequency (my lights), they get zip -tied together.
