Let's see your controller boards/cabinets!!

Is this the besta frame from IKEA? I was looking at this one but the color says brown/black. And I don’t want it unless it’s black.

It’s definitely brown. Far from black if you ask me, and has a slight wood grain effect. I just bought one recently and will have to paint it to match my solid black stand.

My control board/cabinet. I built it out of Expanded PVC. Tank just finished cycling so very early in the build.

Marvelous! That one is impressive, appears as if you took just as much time on the hidden part that no one will ever see but you, as you did on the showroom side!

Still working on this one :P.

@Elder1945 I’m fairly happy and proud of mine till I see your work. It’s astonishing - you are an artist with a very difficult medium. Building mine gave me a whole new appreciation for what you do.

I didn't build mine myself.. but still love it!

Nothing clean as most I've seen. Just functional and protected from spray/humidity
Every wet piece of hardware has it's own dedicated GFCI
Both panels have a Plex cover
Hardware pieces are plugged into the GFCIs and their pigtails are plugged into the power bars
Panduit keeps the AC and DC circuits separated to avoid bus errors
