Hi all,
I ve found a simple water level indicator with 3 LEDs from
https://www.redcircuits.com/Page95.htm

The circuit is


The problem is that the Red LED is always slightly turned ON making it difficult for a first time user to distinguish between the desired water levels..
Can somebody tell me how to make this RED LED completely turned off wen any other LED is ON???

Yes it isn't a well considered design. You can add a resistor (a few k) in parallel to the red LED.
