I think for most reefers, it isn't as much wire management as it is wire mismanagement. Or in all likelihood, a complete rats nest as it is in my case :)

Started using flex tubing after seeing a few pictures of people using it. Very happy with the results. Man does it hurt the back to try and work under the stand.

I would never post a pic of my wiring, I'm certain that a fire marshal would be at my door step within minutes LOL

If you have room you could build a stand just for your apex equipment. I just paid someone to help me clean up my rats nest. It's better now because of the flex tubing but its still no where near where I would like it. There are a few threads on neptunes forum with some nice looking setups.

Have to clean pumps and stuff too frequently to keep them neat so I don't bother.

I saw some kind of wire box conduit mentioned somewhere. I might look into something like that when I have some spare time on my hands. I should have built a bigger stand :)

Built an enclosure out of fiber board and sealed it with black epoxy. everything mounts to the panels backside that I can get to with a removable side cover on the stand. Its a bit more cluttered now with 3 phosban reactors and the calcium reactor but wires are managed the same.

A lot cleaner than it is. I had it pretty well organized before the stand swap but it was a pain in the butt to do anything when I had to take things out to be cleaned.
