Actually was only like this temporarily while I switched between my RK to apex.
I now have everything mounted on panels on panels.
 
I did a tank swap and have been too lazy to clean them up. It is on my list to do
 
I'm constantly looking for better ways to rum my wires

Yea I did too that's why all the water drops on the stand.. I was switching the sump but the only way was through the top so I had to drain the tank.. I also was upgrading to the apex at the same time.
Everything is now mounted to panels painted white. But I am starting over and building a new stand and upgrading the tank.
 
I have 3xApex 8 outlet bars, plus a six-outlet strip (for my lights only)- What I've done is 'tag' each wire at the outlet with a name, and white-tape the same name to the outlet on the strip. These names all correspond (almost exactly) to their names on the Apex software. So, at least when I have to unplug anything in an emergency - I know what I'm doing and the net-effect.

An older photo. But I have a nano tank hooked up to the left, all wires run up to a surge protector. On the right are 3 10 gallon fry tanks for freshwater, ran up to another surge protector. All wires labeled. Nothing fancy just easier to see when I need to unplug pumps to clean.
 
I'll join in... Buckeye burl cabinet door, Black walnut, and red oak carcass. (Some of my artwork)

It houses my Apex controller a power bar and my Tunze powerhead controllers. I'm currently adding some Panta Rhei ecm42's not positive if their pump controls will live inside yet or not. I haven't decided. As with all things it is an evolution.
