Anybody come up with a nice simple toggle switch or physical button to turn off all their water flow? I'm looking to create a physical timer switch or toggle on/off switch that will turn off all the wave makers at once. Something that an LFS would use to turn off flow for customers to look top down and easily turn back on. Possibly one with a timer that will turn back on after x minutes but open to simple ideas like a light switch box, etc. Please post your examples or ideas here.

They have this with appex or theres some smart power strips that will do this.

Not exactly what you are looking for, but what about Kasa smart plugs? I use them for different things on my tank. I have them on my protein skimmer and ATO. I have a routine setup on my ATO, since I forget to turn it back on half the time when I'm doing maintenance. When I turn off the ATO, I have a timer start and it will turn the ATO back on after 2 hours if I forget.

I LOVE these two things. Found them on the Inter-Webby... Amazon, if I recall. The one to the left ("Kasonic") is a pure on/off toggle. The one on the right ("Techin") has a very easy app to run it like a clock. (I can even control my office-tank across town with one touch. If I say the app is easy, it MUST be easy. Lol.)
