IMO this is the best way to deal with the clutter.........electrical raceway. Has a 3M tape on the back and the top snaps in very tight but the key is to label all the cord ends for sure.

I love the electrical raceway its an absolute must when trying to hide and organize cords. I will be using it to finish off the cord managemnet under my tank. I just finished building a false top in a storage bench beside my tank. The false top has a dj power strip mounted in it for quick on and off. All of the excess cords and clutter is hidden away underneath the false top. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.

The raceway will also be used to cover the cords from the light fixture and the tunze 6105 and 7096 controller.
