Fill Water Tanks Wiki

Every system in Fill Water Tanks, defined and sourced: the tank and its levels, the water economy, cash, the pipe ladder, the employee table, buttons, and the rebirth rules. The community wiki on Fandom is still growing — this page consolidates what its sources document, checked 2026-10-03.

How to read this page

Seven entities run the whole game

Each profile names its source: Official (Roblox page/API), fan guide (AllThings.how, Aug 27, 2026), community wiki (Fandom), or creators (credited YouTube walkthroughs). Creator-reported numbers are labeled as such.

Tank

Core entity

The container on your plot that holds water between fills. The official description centers the whole game on it. Level 1 caps at 10 water; the documented upgrades take level 2 at $5 and level 3 at $10 (capacity 100), with later levels scaling into the billions of capacity and costing trillions. Your tank level survives rebirths, which is why it is treated as permanent progression.

10 water (creators)
Level 3 capacity
100 water (fan guide, $10)

Water

Resource

The resource you fill and sell. Water is produced while you stand on the fill button, stored up to tank capacity, and converted to cash the moment you step off. Overflow above capacity is wasted. Employees raise how fast water flows; buttons raise how much fits per cycle; Water Gain raises what each unit pays at the sale.

Produced by
Standing on the fill button; pipes add passive flow
Wasted
Anything above tank capacity while idling

Cash

Currency

The game's money, paid per unit of water sold. Cash buys every upgrade in the documented shops — tank levels, Water Gain, rolls, buttons, employees — and pays rebirth costs ($50,000 first, scaling to millions, billions, and trillions). Free cash sources include the play-time reward menu and the Friend Boost that grows when friends join your server.

Pipe

Equipment

Rolled equipment that boosts the money every cycle pays and adds passive water generation on your plot. The documented ladder runs from the Rusty Pipe (x1.1 money) through Copper (x1.3), Gold/Sapphire/Emerald/Diamond, Platinum, Rainbow (x10), Dark Matter (x15), Prismatic (x20), to the crafted Godly and Underworld tiers. Pipes survive rebirths; crafting consumes the ingredient pipes.

Employee

Automation

Purchasable NPCs that each add +10% tank fill speed. The community wiki documents a 20-employee ladder: $15 for the first, $100 for the second, climbing to $500B for the twentieth (200% total fill speed) — $668,899,403,115 for the full set. A 29-Robux purchase path exists for the first employee per the fan guide. Employees reset on rebirth.

Button

Equipment

The physical button you stand on, upgradeable to move more water per fill. The documented ladder: Copper Button +25% water, Steel +60% (≈$5,000), Bedrock (≈$3.5M), Crystal (≈$100M), and the final Underworld Button at +700%. Button upgrades survive rebirths.

Rebirth

Progression

The prestige layer named in the official description ("Rebirth for HUGE Boosts"). Documented behavior: the first rebirth costs $50,000 and pays a permanent 50% boost plus 10 rebirth tokens; money, workers, and cash upgrades reset while tank level, buttons, and pipes carry over. Tokens feed a rebirth tree (percentage boosts, Crystal Vein crystals, auto-rebirth). Button workers unlock at rebirth 3, new shops at rebirths 3 and 5, more at rebirth 8, and prestige at 15 rebirths (2x → 3x at 20 → 4x at 25).

About this reference

The developer has not published official stat tables, so this wiki consolidates community documentation with per-table attribution. When a number exists only in a creator video, it says so; when the community wiki has not covered a topic yet (most of its pages are still stubs at the 2026-10-03 check), this page cites the walkthroughs that did. Corrections with a checkable source are welcome via the contact page.
