Insert a tilt switch inside a smiley ball. You guys must be thinking why smiley ball needed that ball can easily float on water so when tank fills the tilt switch which we placed inside the ball goes from horizontal position to vertical position. Stick one wooden stick to the edge of tank and other end of stick to the smiley ball and make sure the end which sticked to tank edge is freely moving in upward downward direction and not horizontally.
