Just wondering if a viv pretty much touching a monitor could have any negative effects on the snake?

:cool: james
 
A monitor by design will give off a certain amount of radiation. Is it enough to harm your snake, prooooobably not, but if you are concerned I would suggest moving it.

However, with that said…my mother always did tell me "Back up from the T.V." :)

Regards,

thanks again

Is it a conventional monitor or a plasma/LCD? All give off some amount of radiation, though it varies between models. I highly doubt it would cause any harm, but if you think it may then move the tank.
 
its just an ordinary old monitor and it is about 6 inches away from where the viv is going so id otn think there will be any problem i was just wanting to know if there was anything that does go wrong with the snakes being that close to a monitor and the radiation if anything goes wrong with the snake then i can move its viv easy enough


thanks for the help :)
