A magnetic anchor system which fixes the bottom of fluid level measuring devices to the bottom of fluid storage tanks. The magnetic anchor system is attached to the bottom of a fluid level measuring device. The magnetic anchor system comprises a magnet to sit on the bottom of the tank and a telescoping housing to allow some play to provide for seating at different points on a slant- or cone-bottom of the tank. In addition, a system to calibrate fluid level measuring devices that make use of a float which eliminates the need to raise or lower the fluid level in the tank to provide calibration.
