Somehow, that all has to fit in there. This is going to suck! It’s much bigger than I anticipated.

Time for another tank upgrade? [emoji23]

Never. This is it. If anything happens to this one I’m done for a few years.

The killer is the ATO container under the stand. I blame my wife. She wouldn’t let me have the tank 6” from the dude wall so my old ATO didn’t fit. She said if it’s a bigger tank then EVERYTHIN must fit underneath.
:confused:

And I need to relocate all those power bricks somewhere there isn’t potential for water to hit them.
You do yourself a fav. I have my outlets all behind the tank outside the cabinet..I think is safer on the long run. I have dealt with shorts from salt creep and humidity once almost burned my cabinet wood. Learned my lesson and never again adding outlet inside the cabinet

Not much. I feel like them being outside is more dangerous. Plus it would be a pain to remove them. I have 5” behind tank.
It's not more dangerous, more danger in humid enclosed area pron to splashes...but yeh 5" is tight..
