G might have the drain from D but D has it's input blocked off from C so it never fills.G gets the bottom drain from D. Unless the top is closed, It's G.

Good job fellows,
The answer is…. “F.”
As you can see, tank “C” will flow directly into tank “J” because there’s no actual connection between the “C” and “D” tank.
Then, “J” will flow downward into tank “L.”
From there, the water will drop below and fill tank “F.” There’s no actual connection from “L” to “H,” you’ll notice.

There are actually the connections you mentioned - but some here made the "correct interpretation" of the diagram and some did not for a lack of legend of "connection types". And, yes, it is obvious when the "correct interpretation" of the diagram is explained. And as someone else posted, if A does not fill past its outlet level no tank will fill. Perhaps this was not illustrated by a "genius".

Ahhh, so!
So, this doesn't test IQ, it tests eyesight.

And zooming in on the image it appears that all connection are open or all connections are closed - at least all are non-white at the pixel level:
Download to see that there is no "clear" opening. So, lacking a way to read the illustration any interpretation is valid. I am not saying I am right - I am just pointing out we are all potentially wrong. OK - too much work time spent on this

Are you going to provide your answer? Or, are you going to keep the responders in the dark?

Hi, I initially gave G - until I noticed that the pipe from C to the top of tank D appears to be blocked - The same as the line to tank H.
If these are blocked - then the water path would be A, B, C, J, L and then with the entry to H being blocked - F would fill up from the bottom.
