we use a dj strip for all the pumps and the equipment so that takes a lot of plugs down to one. This allows us to flip the switch for each particular item during feeds/maintenance

what is sad is that is only 1 tank. We also have a FOWLR and 2 nano tanks each with MH (nano) and all the stuff required for that.
Our electric company brings our electric bill by forklift!
