    O'd cut a hole in the stand and have the wires on the inside, but the unit flush mounted to the stand.

    Here's how I have mine. All wires just run behind the stand. This is on the side of the tank, not the front FYI.

    Here is a couple shots of mine. Made DIY stand. Made two attached cabinets on each side of the stand. One for the RKE on the left. Second on the right for ATO container. Just mounted to the front of the stand. I read about you child touching buttons?? Most controllers keys can be locked if that helps.

    I wish my electronics were that organized! Nice job.

    Do those PC4's replace a GFCI switch?

    Inside sump is all my modules.

    I drilled a hole in the stand and ran the display wire through it and put velcro on the stand/module so the display unit covers the hold and hides the wiring, it allows me to grab the unit easily and adjust so it's not akward when I'm trying to do something on the module.
