I'm in a similar situation. I ran the electrical to my fishroom first and then ran an extension cord from the fishroom through the floor to my tank upstairs. So the tank upstairs is on a dedicated circuit and I can shut all the other breakers off throughout my reno. Nothing's reliably labelled on my box either so this has made life much easier.

I've since drywalled around and finished around this cord going into my fishroom. It'll have to be cutoff at the end and just left in the walls at this point when I'm done lol.

I plan to run right into a gangbox or whatnot that will be built into the stand.

Most likely the switches with a plug combo and one for each device. So I run the device plug into the cabinet, plug it in and flick a switch.

No extension cords what so ever. Also plan to seal the cabinet from moisture or potential tank leaks.
