I' m doing such a test myself, I shut off the pump and so on and the water is dead calm, so far (14 hrs) the levels seem identical. I got this from Amazon and it does seem ideal:
I put a weight inside to stop it moving easily and it seems fine. I just wondered too if putting some food color into the bucket might make any level difference easier to spot. Sitting on the pool's baja shelf the rim sits about 1.5" above the water level.
