Yes it is. Try the Redsea anti Aiptasia stuff it worked great for me.

Thanks...can I use this while the tank is cycling or should I wait until the cycle is complete? Thanks again...

If you just started the cycle and those aiptasia are isolated on that piece save yourself some time and frustration and remove the piece.

Well not that easy, the rock is at the bottom of the structure so I really don't want to remove all the rock, can I still use the product while the tank is cycling? Thanks...

Sure of course you can.

Aptasia x is a great product another option is peppermint shrimp but they are a hit and miss

Aptasia X or kalk. Pretty sure that's what most aptasia products are made of anyway. If you want to go the natural way, boil some water, draw it into a syringe and shot them little suckers.
