You guys make a point. I updated my sketch to solve the problem:

Open tap1, close tap 2, suck the water in via the rubber tube, close tap1 then remove the tube so its not in the way during the print. An alternative could by using a large syringe instead of the tube, so u wont have your mouth full of salt water. If the syringe is not big enough, you can open tap, siphon, close tap, empty syringe, and repeat the process as many times as it takes (a 100ml syringe costs less than 2$ on ebay).
Mike:
If i drip from the upper tank, and leave the fluid in the outer tank unchanged, the level of the resin will rise. This can be minimalized if the space wetween the outer and the inner tank is minimal, but then the level of the water in the outer tank would rise way too fast.
Slatye:
The requirement you mentioned is only true if the thickness of the inner container is negligible. Otherwise, it messes up things a bit. (If you want the resin level to stay unchanged, the water in the outer container must rise a little as the inner container floats down).
