Control light spread and elevate your viewing comfort with the Chihiros SLIM Light Shade with Mirror. Designed specifically for the Chihiros WRGB II, WRGB II 10th Anniversary Edition, and WRGB II Slim LED Light series, this accessory prevents unwanted glare when sitting near your aquarium. Instead of simply blocking or wasting stray light, the integrated reflective mirror backing catches escaping side-emitted rays and bounces them directly downward into your planted aquarium for increased PAR performance.
Please check your light fixture model size carefully. Note for larger aquariums: 90cm and 120cm fixtures require combining two matching shade sets to cover the entire length of the light bar.
| Shade Length | Fixture Compatibility | Required Sets for Full Coverage |
|---|---|---|
| 30 cm | WRGB II 30 / 10th Edition 30 / WRGB II Slim 30 | 1 Set Needed |
| 45 cm | WRGB II 45 / 10th Edition 45 / WRGB II Slim 45 | 1 Set Needed |
| 60 cm | WRGB II 60 / 10th Edition 60 / WRGB II Slim 60 | 1 Set Needed |
| 45 cm (Pack of 2 Sets) | WRGB II 90 / 10th Edition 90 / WRGB II Slim 90 | 2 Sets Needed (Combined length = 90cm) |
| 60 cm (Pack of 2 Sets) | WRGB II 120 / 10th Edition 120 / WRGB II Slim 120 | 2 Sets Needed (Combined length = 120cm) |
1. Will this shade fit the Chihiros WRGB II PRO LED Light?
No. The WRGB II PRO fixture has a thicker housing body. This mirror shade is designed specifically for the standard WRGB II, 10th Anniversary Edition, and WRGB II Slim models.
2. How do I install the light shades onto my light?
Installation is completely tool-free. The top edges of the shades feature engineered lips that slide directly into the accessory channels running along the front and back lengths of your Chihiros light housing.
3. How many sets do I need for a 90cm or 120cm light?
For 90cm fixtures, purchase two 45cm sets (which slide end-to-end along the housing). For 120cm fixtures, purchase two 60cm sets.

"This made a massive difference for me. After spending so much time setting up my paludarium it was hard to not be distracted by the bright light omitting from the top. The cover not only provides some marginal improvement in light dispersion at the bottom of the enclosure, where it needs it most, but dramatically improves the overall enclosure aesthetics."
"Works as intended, keeps the bright leds out of my eyes."
"Very necessary! Reduces the harshness of the WRGB Slim without sacrificing the power needed to grow difficult plants!"
"Fits the light perfectly and I am no longer blinded by the lights, beautiful design"
"Pretty disappointed in this product. I purchased it thinking the reflective panels would catch some of the lost light and focus it down into the tank. Sure they might do a little of that, but they’re not like mirrors, more like a cheap reflective fabric. I’ve noticed that my tank is dimmer with this on than with it off. Of course the main part of this is the shade and it’s really well made. I do wish it actually fastened to the light. It just fits in the grooves on top, so when I lift the light to get my lid off, I have to be careful the shades don’t slide off."
"Great to control light spread"
"Excellent quality and outstanding design"
"I love the fact I can watch TV in my living room and no longer be blinded by my light at the same time. I also like how easy they are to take off when you do maintenance. I will definitely be getting one for my other chihiros light."
"Amazing add on to light"
"I purchased it because the light is so bright it was shinin in my eyes when by my aquarium. This does it's job perfectly"
