The device further includes a lid securable over the reservoir with a fluid level indicator directed slidably through the lid, and optionally includes a coiled outlet conduit of translucent character capturing a fiber optic cable therethrough for enhanced use as an ornament. The ornament may further include a modified lid of a funnel configuration that is inverted for use in a filling procedure of the reservoir.
