i am using ready made tank
but now i want to do my custom tank

what is the best size for breading so i can create it ? i will do 10-15 tank system around 5 in a row

That depends. What clownfish species are you working with? How much space do you have? are those 10-15 tanks for everything or just broodstock?

Percula and ocellaris can get by with 20 gallon tanks, all other need 30 to 40 gallon tanks.

Ideal for Clownfish are nearly cubical tanks.
I'm going with standard Aqueon 20 tall and 40B tanks as they are the cheapest options (I only buy them during Petco's Dollar sales).
The 20s are the most space saving if you put them with the short side to the front. This allows me to put 18 tanks on my new shelve with space on the ground for three 40Bs as sumps.
You could also divide 40B into 2 cubicles, either by adding a temporary or gluing in a permanent divider. This looks nicer and gives yo better sight on the fish but the space utilization is less efficient. I will add a few temporary dividers to some of my existing 40Bs.
Plumbing is still something I need to figure out myself.

ok great
now i got idea of the size i will go for
20 for Percula and ocellaris
and 40B for all other i think is the best thing to go
20 will be great on the stand but for the 40B i would need to change the stand or use less tank to fit it nicely

plumping not very hard for me
i will start with only soft tube insert into the bulkhead
then i will install Union so later i can change everything to hard plumming that will let me think more of it and what i need to do exactly

skimmer, pumps i already have some i will install it in any tank and it will work as a sump i have large plastic tank i will use it as a sump.. i used it as a frag tank and its amazing
