Hello, I'm mounting 3-300 watt Jagers my stock tank sump. I'd like to keep them organized. Does anyone have a system they use? I was thinking strapping them to egg crate? Thanks.

I had 2 150w heaters ziptied to a little 1/2" pvc stand I made from some elbows and tees

It worked good but I started pumping my sump water back into the display during water changes and the heaters would be exposed, I didn't want to have to worry about unplugging them so now they just sit on the bottom of my sump

I just use one of my sump chambers solely to house UV and my two heaters. The water level in this chamber is always at the highest level in my sump with pump on or off, so they go there. I thought about making little "feet" or stand for them, but decided it wasn't worth it. now I just have them at a 45degree lift since the wires hang over the top.

Same here, I have have two titanium heaters that just lay on the bottom of the sump. Nothing fancy.

I also have 3x300w on the bottom of sump but I see condensation buildup so I called the comp I brought it from and he said its beat to have them in a little angle... So now I have the knobs suspending by a lava rock with 3 holes... Love to upload pic but can't on this phone...
