    gaffa tape and baling twine?

    If you mean like they do in the falcon utes its all done through metal tubes so the two tanks run at an equal pressure. they fill and drain as if they were one.

    To correctly and legally hook up two or more tanks they must be connected via a hydrostatic valve and both or all solenoids powered together , seprate fillers are recommended if different size tanks are connected together . This info does not apply to tanks like the APA G84MAN ( scuba tanks ) which are three tanks linked by liquid and vapour tubes top and bottom or the twin tanks used in the Egas falcon sedans .
    Hope this answers your question .
