Chihiros WRGB II Slim
R1518 – R3404
Description
Chihiros WRGB II Slim
The Chihiros WRGB II Slim is an LED system series, which serves the complete colour range of aquatic plants with its optimised design of RGB LEDs and lets the colours in the aquarium shine especially vividly. Compared to the classic WRGB II model, this lamp is only 15 mm thick and blends discreetly into any aquarium design without drawing attention away from the layout. The Chihiros – WRGB II Slim is also remarkable for its particular stability. At a relatively low power consumption, Chihiros ii slim series led lighting illuminates the complete tank with excellent light distribution angles and suites aquarium sizes from 30 to 140 cm length.
The Chihiros WRGB II Slim light-system is programmed via the “My Chihiros App” directly and does not need an additional commander. The app offers individual control over the three colour channels “R” (red), “G” (green) and “B” (blue), as well as individually programmable daily phases. Sunrise and sunset can be imitated, too. Additionally, Chihiros has installed various presets that can highlight certain types of plants with special colour settings. These presets can also be adjusted individually with the app, so that the best possible illumination can be achieved for each aquarium. With the chihiros wrgb ii slim series, there is no need for an external timer because all schedules can be saved as desired.
Features:
- Case colour: black
- 20 to 80 LEDs
- No additional commander needed
- EU power adapter and plug included
- 20 – 90 W power consumption
- 1.200 – 4.800 lm
- With variable holder
What is the best setting for Chihiros WRGB 2?
It is important to keep the correct spectrum when growing aquarium plants. It is not recommended to adjust the light too much. When you are setting either the Red, Green or Blue – you need to make sure to keep these settings within 5% of each other. For example, if you have adjust the Red spectrum, then the blue and green should not be more than 5% higher or lower than that of the red. This will help in promoting plant growth and slowing down algae growth. You can use the following percentages as a guideline for specific size aquarium and depth:
- 20cm deep : 35% on RGB
- 25cm deep : 40% on RGB
- 30cm deep : 60% on RGB
- 35cm deep : 80% on RGB
- 40cm Deep : 100% on RGB
- 45cm or deeper will require mulitple chihiros lights
Is Chihiros WRGB 2 waterproof?
No. The light can handle minor slashes, but it is not waterproof.
What LED is used by Chihiros?
The lamp body of the wrgb ii slim series led is equipped with type 5730 SMD LED chips in three adjacent rows. This provides an even and areal illumination of the aquarium. The white LEDs have a colour temperature of about 8000 Kelvin. This will only apply if you keep the all 3 colours (Red, Green and Blue) on the same percentage.
What is WRGB aquarium light?
Each letter represents a colour. In this case the W means white, R is for red, G for green and B for Blue. Normally if you put the RGB close together it appears white to the naked eye. This is the case with the Chihiros WRGB slim there is only RGB, but with the Chihiros WRGB Pro it also has white as spectrum separately.

Well worth the investment.
Wondered if this would be suitable for my tank as i have a few “high tech” plants. Well i have it set to 75% at the moment and after a few days can already notice a huge improvement in growth and the reds are coming out strong
Verified owner Emily Carter (verified owner) –
I’ve set it up on my betta tank during its beginning stages and just wow…I never understood the hype (more due to being expensive) until I got one for myself. It’s a game changer and the app is 10/10. In my opinion it’s 100000% worth it. (Just a note because I didn’t read it properly and might help someone out. The total length is adjustable and can extend a lot more than I expected. Amazing as it’s not “set in stone” and can always readjust. It just depends on how much of the light you want to cover the tank. So personally if it’s for a betta tank rather get smaller light for sensitivity and you can always make the length work for you.)
Verified owner Chris Ingram (verified owner) –
Great light for a reasonable price. Have 2 on my tanks running c02 and they work amazingly well. The app is sometimes annoying but can’t complain… best light for the price by far.
Verified owner Marius Hattingh (verified owner) –
Incredible light, I’ve bought 4 or 5 tanks of all price ranges for my tank, this one is the best by a long shot. The colour controls are great and let you tweak it to whatever you like, the app is good with auto settings so that you can customise your routines and then set and forget it. Highly recommend.
I’ve just ordered my second for another tank
Verified owner Charl Hall (verified owner) –
Great product , looks amazing , app is easy to use.
Verified owner Martin (verified owner) –
What an epic light!
This has changed everything about my tank for the better – thanks for the recommendation!
Verified owner John-William Wainwright (verified owner) –
Great product, app is easy to use and the light works wonders. Really got what I paid for
Verified owner Willan Adonis (verified owner) –
Grows plants superbly – helps if you have CO2. Before I had CO2, I turned the brightness down to 50%. The phone app works well and allows you to adjust the timer. The Bluetooth timing desyncs with loadshedding, so you’ll need to reconnect your phone to the light to correct the time. Else get a WiFi switch either the Chihiros WiFi module or a WiFi smart switch.
Verified owner Jaydee Le Roux (verified owner) –
Bought the chihiros light for my 60cm tank just over a month ago and this light is amazing. The colour spectrum is great for all types of plants and my plants in my tank is showing amazing growth with beautiful colours. From bright reds to orange to green. The time setting on the app helps with the automation in combination with the co2 system. Thanks for recommending this light McMerwe!
Verified owner bernard.bravenboer (verified owner) –
Love this light so much. Colours are great, it looks way more expensive than it is and works seamlessly. The app is easy to use and it’s an overall delight
Verified owner rautenad (verified owner) –
What a great light, makes the fish pop out of the tank and makes their colours so much better
Verified owner Jason Wyngaardt (verified owner) –
Fantastic light with vivid colours. The software makes it easy to control and automate the light. Love it.
Verified owner Geon Burden (verified owner) –
Was suggested to buy this light for my 55l planted tank! What an amazing light! Changed the whole look of my tank! Super satisfied!
Verified owner jeandreswan (verified owner) –
The light did wonders for my plants in only a few days (after switching from a cheaper light). My Rotala Macrandra went from a pale brownish green to vivid pink/red. The only thing I changed was my light.
The companion app is a bit clunky and apparently support on it isn’t great, but so far it works fine. It’s cool that you don’t need a separate timer, the only problem I had was that after loadshedding my schedule that I set up through the app didn’t work and I had to go back into the app and reconnect the light. It would also have been better to have it connect via wifi instead of bluetooth so that you can control the light remotely (but there is a little wifi connector sold seperately)
Verified owner Martin Coxon (verified owner) –
It took me a while to justify the cost of these lights to myself, but the results from both plants and livestock is more than worth the cost. Before installing them my plants were growing well but once I installed the Chihiros lights they exploded with much more growth and more vivid colours. Only word of caution is to start off at a reduced intensity and ramp up to avoid hair algae while the plants adapt to the stronger lighting.
