Alright, my tank is (and has to be) self contained (No fish room or basement...unfortunately).

Things are getting crowded under there, and it's a mess.

I've got my sump, ATO reservoir, BRS reactor, DJ powerstrip & another powerstrip. One of the biggest issues are powercords running everywhere, and tubes (ATO & Reactor) running everywhere...not to mention the plumbing.

I'm planning on taking the sump offline in order to replumb it, and that would be the perfect opportunity to clean everything up down there.

So I'd love to see some pictures of your clean in-stand setups.

I am in another state at the moment, so I can't offer you pictures. What I do is use black electrical tape to tidy up the cords. I do not use zip ties because they have to be cut (and a new one installed) every time I need to remove the equipment for cleaning. Simply coil up the unneeded wire and put a few passes of tape on them.
