Panduit is awesome for running cords and stuff in hoods and cabinets. For outside stuff, I like the black split wire harness stuff.

I used 1.5" conduit clamps and ran all my wires through them.

And it's easy to remove the cord if you need to unplug something and remove it

I'm trying to figure out if I have enough room in my stand to build in a hidden compartment that I can access from the side. I have my full Apex system with 2 power bars that I would like to hide, but also protect from moisture. Currently they're tacked to the wall beside the tank, and it looks like crap.
