I was wondering which one was recommended for best flow and cooling, either the serial bridge or the parallel one

Parallel is for multi component loops or low power pumps, serial may give better results if you have a gfx only loop.

I will be running a single loop with a Hailea chiller,2 x mcp 655 pumps and a 25 litre reservoir, no rads

So what have you done, I want to do same thing? With dual mcp 655 HK 3.0, mobo block and 2xhd 5850

Can you use one of these EK blocks for two gerlz at the same time?

I am currently running a single loop with 3 X 480's ,1 pump, 1 triple Rad and the cards are in parallel. My temps are 33C idle and 50C load across all 3 cards. I might get a little better temps in series but parallel was easier and looked much better to me :)
I'm planning a gpu only loop myself using the Aqua Computer Bridge, any pics I could use as reference please? I still get stuck on the serial/Parallel thing.
