I am looking to run a few water lines from my tank to perform auto water changes as well as pull in fresh RO/DI water. I am trying to figure out what would be the best way to mount the water lines through the wall and to the tank. I was hoping to figure out a nice faceplate type setup were I could temporary disconnect as needed and make things look pretty. So far I have not found anything that seems to meet this need. They have this basic cord faceplates but it wouldn't really secure the water line in any way.

I was more hoping to find something like this RJ-45 faceplate but would have connectors for 1/4in water lines. Perhaps I could get creative with one of these faceplates and make something custom. However wondering if anyone else has something they found works for this application?

Get blank faceplates drill them and get 1/4 bulkheads
Ah yeah didn't think about a blank. With that some glue to hold in place and a simple little ball valve should work out fine. Thanks for the suggestion.
 
Grab a couple, that plastic is us usually pretty brittle to drill or cut.
