Hey guys, my house has to get tented for termites and I don't know what I should with my tank. Will it be ok if I jjust cover it or something? Any information helps thanks!
 
I don't know. But using my background in science, I would think the toxins would become soluble in the water (since would be airborne); thus killing your fish.

Try it and let us know!
 
id seal it up with some thick plastic sheeting and duct tape

I agree, and do a water change as soon as you get home in case anything did get through.
 
I would also turn off the air pump unless you enclose it as well, that would be like injecting the poison right into the water.
