yeah, that's a temporary thing - I agree its ugly and dosen't fit with the rest of the tank. I bought one of those wiremold cord holders that lays flat on the ground and prevents tripping on the cord, and was going to run it along the wall across the kitchen doorway and then across to underneath the tank. But I didn't buy enough, so that will happen next week. I am also planning on making another extension cord on another outlet (which is also on a different breaker) with a UPS backup for my powerheads and auto feeder on it. So a temperature decrease would be the major issues for a short term power outage. But my 2008 fish budget was spent in 2007 so that may have to wait until I am no longer a student.

When I am no longer renting, I will try to get a few GFCI outlets coming up from the floor right into the stand, on a dedicated breaker.
