THAT's IT! I was just telling my wife tonight that I have seen my brothers crew use a similar method when leveling the concrete during pool construction. They would take a bucket of water, insert a long flex rubber tube to create a level that they could then extend to any part of the pool to get the same exact level as the other side. I was trying to figure a way to implement that principle somehow. I just need to put a length of tube on the outside of the tote connected to the bottom of the toe.

However the more I resolve this issue the more I realize that it's a pointless measurement to take. Isn't it? I mean if like a previous poster said, if all I do is measure the new water then why do I care how much water is in the current reservoir.
