Looking for some suggestions to help with the organization under my AIO setup. It’s been a struggle trying to find a good alternative to just throwing everything in there. Any products or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. And before the comments, yes that is a Home Depot bucket for my ATO.

That’s not bad, but if you wanted a little cleaner look you could either get some small zip ties, twisty ties, or even cable management tracks off amazon and bundle up the cords to tuck them out of sight. :o
Could probably get a plastic storage shelf from the dollar store too

Well, first of all there’s way too much $$@?!! Just thrown in there. So first I would obtain a separate cupboard or night stand. Thinking second hand store.
Then begin to rout cables and wires. Finally utilize plastic hooks and other space savers. Organize it!!!
Put food, chemicals, etc in the nightstand.
You will like the result.

A plastic low rim “tub” from Walmart to place on the bottom to catch any water spills works wonders keeping the wooden base from warping.

I would keep the powdered additives (AFR) elsewhere, can be humid in the stand. Also keep test kits out of there. other than that, that looks mild compared to others
Thanks for the heads up. Will be moving those for sure now.
