Sure it is. It threatens your apistos, doesn't it? You need to stretch plastic wrap over all your tanks. SaranWrap will work, or any other plastic sheeting. Gurantee a seal with tape all around. This means you will have to remove airlines, heaters, and anything else that keeps the plastic from sealing completely. After sealing the tanks, you place all the lids and striplights that rest on the tops of the tanks in sealed plastic, or remove them from the premises. Heaters et al. as well. The fish will survive a day or so with Saran wrap over the tops. Heavier plastic needs to be put on a few hours before the bug asasins arrive and removed as soon as you can get back into the house.
