I just got a stand and canopy for a 125 that i want to put behind a couch. The only problem is it is very close to a billiards table (so is my 7ft 210 gallon tank). My only concern is if a ball goes off the table and hits the tank(s).

So how can I keep this for happening.

keep these in mind
1. The billiard table is staying
2. The tank(s) and billiard table won't be moved somewhere else.
 
lol i have the same problem my 125 is like 4' from the pool table
when ever we play i just have someone or me stand in front of the tank we don't play that often so it isn't a big deal for me
 
Put some tracks in the ceiling and run somthing like heavy curtins across in front the tank, think like movie theatre. I think that would stop the balls. It could be removed when not playing. Thats all i cam think of off the top of my head.

This is a very good idea, very heavy curtains... Id say a foot away from your tank atleast so it has room to stop... I mean it has to have some force if they are flying off your table............
 
dont hit the balls into the tank? I would agree though set up a curtian or something heavy infront of the tank incase a ball goes flying. I ve held my breath a few times when my dog chew off the round end of a bone and decides to play with it - she likes to throw it, sometimes at my tank and I am waiting for the day she cracks it.
