This is more of a legal question and not a tax question. Not all states provide for a Series LLC (Texas does), and the laws on this can differ among states that do allow this. I would suggest you seek the services of a Business Attorney or other legal professional in Texas that is well versed in this.

You should be able to amend your LLC filing, but professional assistance is recommended.

I will add a couple of comments:

I also agree that you get professional assistance so you understand the tax and legal implications.
Make sure the operating agreement allows for the Series LLC
There are numerous "less than clear" open questions in this area.
While the current federal treatment is filing a single "master" LLC tax return, make sure you have excellent separate books and records for each series to support the separate liability issue.
- The single LLC tax return will reflect ALL income, expenses, assets and liabilities on a single return.
- This is NOT like a consolidated C corporation tax return where each subsidiary is reflected separately and then consolidated at the parent level.
Don't be penny wise and pound foolish in this venture. Penalties, and legal issues, could certainly outweigh any professional fees.
