I just bought some, if I ever get them in use I'll post some pics.

I don't see any pics on the site.

Problem is I'm trying to hide power bars and lots of cords in a not so big stand.

No pics, terrible site it was just for reference of where you could get some. They come in 4' lengths you cut as needed. Kinda pointless in a stand really. Have you seen the zip tie type thing that you can release and then use a again? It would be good to organize cables tight but then allow the removal of certain wires and such for repair and cleaning.

What does this stuff sell for by the foot approximately?

I vote a panel on one side, or at the back of the stand where you can hide it all behind. Mount everything on the front and drill holes in it for the wires to go behind and out of sight. Like the 4th pic I posted, looks like he didnt have a tonne of space, but it looks like he hid everything nicely.

I was thinking building a recessed compartment into the side facing the wall to house the Apex bars, then cords could come through the back of that compartment. But I have to see how much room my Ca reactor takes up. If I keep my 20# CO2 tank external, I may have more room than using a 5# inside the stand. The stand will sit very close to the wall, so no room behind it to do much. I also have 2 large MH ballasts to deal with. hmm
