If I hook one water tank next to the other and the last one to a water purifier...
Will the water from the first water tank go through the other water tanks and then eventually through the water purifier?

You'll need water pumps, the tanks won't spill over via pipe. You also can't pump it from the purifier into a container.

I should clarify because the game naming is confusing. You have the Water Pump under Production that produces water. But also, under Function is another Water Pump. This one will move the water you have along the pipe system.

However, to get the purified water out, that has to be done manually. Because of that I've found 2 water containers to be more than I needed to maintain.

Yes You can . my setup is a water tank on a storage chest ( slightly higher off the floor) into water purifier or osmosis machine then into an over flow tank that is piped into a final tank. no small wall pump needed as long as ur water flow is based on gravity you are fine. I have a friends from osmosis to water tank to another water tank to another water tank. via the pipes nothing else.

Really? I could not get water to move via gravity or pump from the Purifier. It would hit 100 and stagnate. I'll give it another shot.

Well I'll be dipped. Rebuilt the same setup, Ground Pump > Purifier > Pump > Storage and now it works just fine. Gravity isn't an option for me on this build but thanks for the heads up.

Everything needs power !! but i swear.. i have no issues.. i had more issues using the small wall pump so i just slightly raised certain things and i have many overflow tanks that feed directly into another one.
