Series v.s. Parallel?

Series: the same current will flow accrost all components, so the current is constant, but the voltage across a particular component is dependant upon its resistance in a series circuit

Parallel: the same voltage will be present across each component, but the current that flows through each one is dependant upon its resistance

This is according to Kirchhoff's Laws

Think of your parallel circuit there, as if each LED were connected to a separate battery with a resistor 3× your original value, cause the current flowing out of it got split into 3 different paths... Anyway, using a separate battery for each would have the same effect (which may help you understand it a little better if you don't yet), the only difference is there not drawing current from the same battery

Remove your power supply. Either Loop your resistor back to the ground or remove it also. If you keep it lower its resistance as low as possible. If you get rid of the resistor Loop the LED back to the ground. Tune all of your LEDs as follows. Junction capacitance to zero, voltage to 100 millivolts, current to 5 amps. Enjoy the show
