You can run multiple tanks off a singe pressurized cylinder of CO2 -- the only thing is that you need to have a needle valvw for each tank to control the flow to each tank. A single regulator will drop the pressure, but you have to be able to control each tank on it's own. When I was into CO2 for plants I had a many as 4 tanks run off a single cylinder.

thanks for posting the needle valve website. A little pricey for a small brass needle valve, but I guess that is what they go for nowadays.

When I was first tinkering with Diy co2 generators, I actually bought two step ladder diffusers for one tank. I put a tee in the one line coming from the generator, splitting the line to feed both diffusers. It never worked. The gas always took the path of least resistance and would only go to one diffusers.. So, if you do want to run two tanks from one generator, you will need something like this!
