Here’s mine, everything hidden under my desk. The wiring was neater but I changed a few things and didn’t do as good of a job straightening it out.

I don't feel bad now. That's after some organization, lol. There used to be another eb8 squeezed in the 1st pic.

I could use some feng shui in that cabinet.

My system has been running half-@$$ed and half staffed since moving last year. Equal amount of apex gear in storage atm. I don’t mind a rats nest of wires as long as it’s safe.

on a more serious note- I had a neat “display” before. It was equally as rats-nesty behind the board… ditched the Alkatronic and made my own using the neptune dōs.

If you go on Neptune’s website you can print out templates for everything. Makes arranging everything much easier

That orange spray bottle is one of the counter weights that helps lift the front panel of the tank. It is on a linear actuator :beaming-face-with-smiling-eyes:

On the shelf are a couple of diatom filters from the 70s and in the 10 gallon buckets is NSW from a few hundred yards away in the sea. :D

I don't have any controllers except a $7.00 lamp timer for the lights.

That looks very neat and nice! Like it’s combed out!

I also don’t understand the hyper focus on hiding the rats nest. Just close the door. Can I say my entire sump is my controller board? :)
Combed out, maybe. It's just the dosing containers are hiding the rats nets.
 

Form or function: Do you consider your rock work to be art or the platform for your coral?
