panel in the garage - components under tank. ~25' away. Had to run 1-1/4" 2x out of garage and back into room behind tank. No over/under access in this room. The conduits enter the grey j-boxes under the tank. One for line voltage and the other for control wiring to panel.
Edit, guess I need to get a new picture under tank - it has grown some since this pic.

That looks like a commercial lighting control panel!

Still not finished, but here is some progress pics. I’m keeping the stock ato so that’s what that shelf is for. Not much room on these reefer 250s.

Haha thanks it was such a pain with all the long wires. Now dealing with Apex stupid calibrations on there liquid level sensor ugh.
Yeah, I just picked one up to replace the optical sensors in my ATO res. I haven't started wrestling with it yet, but given that I'll be using it to pump water up from the basement, I predict a flood and angry wife in my very near future.

did you custom make this or have it made? Could you drop the companies info If it was made for you & how much this ran you? I love how sleek the entire setup is

Just finished installing a 3D printed shelf for the Trident making more room. Board will be redone soon.
I now it’s been a while and maybe your setup is very different now but was this a 750xxl stand’s chiller section? If so how wide is your control board in the back. I’m thinking of a very similar setup to maximize space

Everything is still looking the same. The control board does not take up the entire section. It is only 15.5” wide.

Awesome. So pretty much the size of adaptive reef board. Good to know.
