cannister filter, a really powerful one, you could could use a t joint on the intake an output of the filter to both tanks, itd have to be quite a powerful cannister filter though.

How about have a good solid airpump, running some sponge filters?
Or a internal filter in each tank.

you can run it with a canister, the intake at the bottom tank and the outlet (spray bar) on the top tank.

Why don't you create a sump underneath the tanks and connect them both to it.
