harrylin,
Except in the case of very fast flow or very small tubes, the friction losses would be very small. Regardless, if we approach this from the eyes of a mechanical engineer, we could easily introduce a head loss term to fairly accurately account for the effect of viscous losses. You could theoretically do the same for the loss associated with the T-joint.
The important thing is that neither of those additional loss terms will depend on the number of reservoirs or amount of fluid in each reservoir.
