Nano Topoff???

Hey Guys,
I've been on RC for quite some time but have never posted to this forum before.

I have a small 5 gallon Eclipse Reef that's about 3 years old
I need to hookup a quick and easy Topoff before I leave on vacation. Because of the recent heat-wave and a fan that I have to blow over my filters for cooling...I am losing at least a quart a day to evaporation.

I have various float valve, float switches, RO solenoids, etc that are applicable for my larger reef, but I need/want something quick and simple for my Nano. Something along the lines of a gravity-fed Kent dose container sort of setup. I don't really want to make an elaborate electrical system out of float swithes and such...I just want something simple and temporary. Unfortunately, I don't have enough clearance for a standard mechanical float valve, or it would be easy. Is there some other way of doing a gravity-fed topoff system for a Nano?

Thanks in advance
Kevin
 
Ok, I took some photos....this is what I've got to work with:
(the tank is sitting in my garage temporarily)
