Hi read first page your build thread and skipped through other 2 pages,hope your orange monti survived ( will read another time other 2 pages) but dumb question time,I did read about your switch system but couldn't see anywhere if you just plug stuff Into back iff it or cut plug off and wire each item into every switch so be grateful if you could explain plug or cut please ha ha )Once the light schedule was set I ordered a Nero 3 Wave pump for flow. I installed it below the return outlet and set it to about 65% flow random. It provides a nice flow pattern down the viewing side of the aquascape.

It was getting to the point that plugging and unplugging gear was a chore so I installed an American DJ PC-100 rack-mount AC switch panel from an old tank build on some left over wood I had around. I mounted it vertical so That I would have room in front of it for an eventual ATO reservoir. The mounting board is temporary (or so I'm telling myself) until I finalize the gear layout.
