I saw this thread a few days ago and couldn't find it or get search results.
Currently I have 50 million plugs daisy chained to power strips.
Im look for a site that sells something I can plug all the plugs in and it has switches to each plug i can label. I dont have room to do a DIY so im looking for a product - else I'd do it myself.

A lot of computer stores sell these power bars with individual switches for each outlet

PS: Will a fat plug overlap the plugs on the right and left of it? Or is there enough space?

More money than the previous one but, plugs in at front.
Seems to be a very well made durable product.
I am using two of them.

Are you talking about timers... because on the thread member jade 76 also connected one or 2 powerstrips to the unit for his timers so they didn't block off the outlets.

I hear ya... behind my tank is a disaster... it's on the very bottom of my "to do" list though, and somehow manages to keep slipping lower.
