    So my room has ambient light from my PC and monitor, will it affect my snake at night?

    Title question. It's not crazy bright and I'm working on a front cloth cover to open at day but will the ambient light visible through the top of the Viv on the roof be a problem? Stimson python btw. the stuff int the enclosure isn't lit up at all just the roof 6ft above the roof of the Viv.
