IF i had to do it again, I would run my circuits similar to that of my kitchen. 20 amp circuit for the top plugs and another 20 amp circuit for the bottom plugs. Just make sure you break off the brass connector between the two plugs that comes standard when you buy them otherwise you will get some sparks flying when you power them up.

Two dedicated 20A GFCI circuits + 15A GFCI circuit for the rest of the rec room (as a backup). But the most useful bits are the two Chauvet 8-outlet power panels that are plug into the circuits.

I ran (2) 15A GFI breakers for my tank, its basicly a circuit for lights and one for pumps.
