Outlet pipe for Dolphin C-700, C-1300 and C-1600 canister filters
The outlet pipe for the Dolphin C-700, C-1300 and C-1600 canister filters is a key replacement part that ensures filtered water returns to your aquarium smoothly and efficiently. This pipe delivers a steady, directed flow back into the tank, helping maintain strong circulation, improved oxygen exchange and cleaner overall water movement.
A cracked, blocked or weakened outlet pipe can reduce flow, strain the filter or lead to uneven water distribution in the aquarium. Replacing it with the correct Dolphin outlet pipe restores optimal performance and supports consistent filtration across all three compatible models.
Made from durable, aquarium-safe materials, this outlet pipe fits securely into each system and is easy to install during routine maintenance or when upgrading worn parts. It is suitable for both freshwater and marine setups and is designed to handle long-term use without warping or leaking.
Keeping essential replacement parts like the outlet pipe on hand helps reduce downtime during servicing and ensures your filtration system continues to run at peak efficiency.

Phosphate Test Strips

Aquarium Phosphate Test Strips – Another similar set usually sold with a test tube and instructions — easy visual color chart.
AquariaTest Phosphate – Compact, budget-friendly phosphate test strips.
Labbox Phosphate Test Strips – Larger set with many more strips (good if you plan regular testing).

NT Labs Phosphate Test Kit Freshwater – Easy liquid kit for freshwater phosphate.
API Phosphate Test Kit – Classic aquarium phosphate kit (many tests).
Aquaforest Phosphate Test Kit Pro – Good balance of accuracy and price.
Why Monitor Phosphate?
Phosphate (PO₄) comes from tap water, fish waste and decaying plant material. It’s a major food source for algae, so high levels can cause algae blooms.
Strips give a quick indication of phosphate but are typically less accurate than liquid test kits. They’re great for routine checks but not as precise for detailed water chemistry.
How to Use the Strips
Dip a strip into aquarium water briefly.
Remove and hold horizontally; wait the recommended time (usually ~15–90 seconds).
Compare the color result to the provided chart to read phosphate levels.
