The Mitras® LX7 series is an ultra-bright LED full-spectrum light with an enormous power density (versions 7×06 with up to 195 W) that ensures natural brilliant colors (CRI> 95), uniform illumination, and radiant brightness in your aquarium. The unparalleled high efficiency and photosynthetic efficiency are unrivaled on the market.
The elegant Mitras® LX7 is designed to be used as pendant lights over open aquariums. The installation above the basin can easily be done with the stylish Mitras Flex Mount System or GHL Hanging Kit.
Developed and manufactured in Germany, the luminaires are characterized by the latest in LED technology and is incredibly efficient and durable. Compared to conventional lighting technology, this luminaire can save more than 50% energy costs per year.
Available in timeless black or modern silver/white
Experience Your corals in fantastic colors
Our first-class product design, technical know-how, and extremely careful selection and assembly of the LEDs ensure outstanding illumination performance.
Mitras LX7 provides the ideal light spectra for marine and freshwater aquariums. Our full-spectrum luminaire uniquely mixes light to provide plants and corals with high photosynthetic efficiency which promote the lush growth of plants and corals.

Instead of using LED lenses that cause light loss, we use special, metal-coated high-performance reflectors made from the same materials used for space technology to maximize light efficiency, increase light spread, optimally blend LED colors, and minimize light loss. Our reflector design mimics the reflective performance of Metal Halide reflectors and reflect 99% of light. This allows for maximum light output and significantly increased light penetration, even in depth.
With the integrated lighting control, you can conveniently adjust the light output as well as the light spectrum in a wide range exactly as needed and save it as an illumination project of your own.
Very fine Dimming by GHL Perfect Dimming Technology® with over 4000 dimming levels and a dimming ratio of 3000: 1 per light channel (color).
All 9 LED–channels are separately dimmable in up to 4000 steps. In addition to the variable light spectrum, a variety of functions can also be accomplished:
The professional and free PC operating software GHL Control Center (GCC) allows you to conveniently operate and configure your Mitras® LX7 with the PC.
With GCC, you can easily create your desired illumination program. Light color and illumination intensity can be programmed to vary over the course of the day.
You can either just take over one of the existing lighting projects for your luminaire, or create your own project from scratch.
The operation of the luminaire is simple and user-friendly. Operate the LX7 directly from the device’s control panel (LX7x06), or via GHL Connect (App, Webserver, PC, or cloud (myGHL).
The graphical display gives you a quick overview of the current operating conditions of the luminaire.
*only LX7x06 models
The control panel of the luminaire and its back-lit capacitive buttons offer quick and easy operation. Tasks such as changing settings or starting special effects such as thunderstorm simulation can be accomplished from the graphic display.
*depending on the chosen model
Thanks to the integrated control and the built-in radio module, each luminaire can be used in different ways:
Connect the Mitras LX via the cloud (myGHL), your smartphone, or your computer – built-in WiFi and USB offers you all the connection options you need.
For communication betweeen multiple Mitras LX (e.g. in Master/Slave-mode), the Mitras LX includes a second RF module which works independently from WiFi. Potential home network problems will not affect the Mitras LX, neither will the internal Mitras LX traffic stress the network.
Mitras LX7 is available in different models with optimized light spectrums for any application.

Mitras LX7x06 has 6 clusters (Total of 72 LEDs)
Mitras LX7x04 has 4 clusters (Total of 48 LEDs)
All Mitras luminaires are designed with upgradeability in mind. It is super easy to swap LED clusters and benefit from the latest technological developments. For example, an LX70xx can be converted to an LX72xx with a simple cluster swap.
Unlike many other LED fixtures, Mitras LX lamps do not create an unsightly and disturbing “disco effect”. This effect is often noted as seeing obvious color spots on the substrate which tend to move side-to-side during water surface agitation. Our metal coated high performance LED reflector mimics the reflective performance of parabolic Metal Halide reflectors by perfectly blending all LED channels. In a single Mitras LX cluster, all 12 LEDs are housed on an area of just 25 mm x 25 mm – this narrow arrangement and special reflector design helps achieve perfect light mixing.

* Specifications relate to average parameters and may vary due to component tolerances and ambient conditions.
* Both the power supply and luminaire become warm during normal operation and must therefore be installed in an area that allows for sufficient heat dissipation.

The following items are included:
Mitras LX7 may not be used in a closed aquarium below a cover. The clearance between aquarium and Mitras LX7 must beat least 20 cm (7.9″).
If you are looking for a luminous and powerful alternative for built-in or closed aquariums, we recommend our LED Light Bar Mitras Lightbar.
This video shows how to easily replace the LED clusters of the aquarium LED fixture Mitras LX7. Mitras LX7 offers the possibility to replace every single LED cluster, in case you want to change the model, e.g. from marine water to fresh water, or want to take advantage of the newest LED innovations GHL offers in new LED cluster models.
