    Vacuum
In summary, the discussion of perpetual motion is forbidden on this site and resources are provided to explain why. Water cannot have perpetual flow and the water levels will eventually equalize around 10 metres above the spillway of the catch tank.

TL;DR Summary
onsidering fluid dynamics and conversion of mass.......after all tanks and lines filled with water, then opening sluice valve to "tank a", afterwards others, water perpetual flow or no?🤔

and if not, where will water levels equalize?

No. Perpetual motion is not possible.
Discussion of PM is forbidden on this site.

About 10 metres above the spillway of the catch tank. That is the height of a water-filled barometer, a column of water supported by atmospheric pressure with a near vacuum of water vapour above.
