Hey how much should the nut that secures the syphon to the cistern be tighthen. I know they can easyly be over done and broke.
 
A fraction over hand tight. When it's sealed it's sealed - you can't get more sealed than that.
 
No, the rubber washer between the bottom of the siphon and the bottom of cistern should seal it.

Silicone is also a great adhesive, which might make the siphon difficult to remove in the future.
