Snaggle is right a GFCI is another level of safety and will trip even with a power Bar plugged into it....I surge protector is a very good idea but as mention are very pricey, but if your gonna get one do buy the cheapest one out their cause you'll regret it in the long run!!!

As for power distribution i would try and spread it out as much as possible as in try and split the higher current suckers i.e (pump and MH) but I don't know of to many house that have 2 circuits to one room....I personnaly ran a dedicated 20Amp circuit to my tank so as to not have to worrie about over loading!
