    you can try doing this.
    dump the powerhead and get an external canister filter.
    you can just have wool in the canister. the output from the canister would do the work of circulating the water in your tank and would not interfere with your monitor.

    anyone else has any other ideas?
    Cheers,

    Change to a LCD monitor.

    Magnetic fields and CRT monitors don't mix. One solution I can think of that may work is to have a metal sheet between the powerhead and the monitor. That will be an eyesore though.
