Habitat - Indoor :: Spliting one filter with 2 tanks?

[clock906]

Hi...i am very new in turtle and aquarium stuffs, so this might sound weird...
but is it possible to split one filter for use in 2 different tanks?

I.E. I have a 20 gallons fish and a 10 gallons turtle tank that are placed side by side. Is it possible for me to use one canister filter (RENA XP3), and put a splinter at each of the outlet & inlet of the canister filter so I can have 2 inlet & outlet and place one of each in the 2 tanks?

Capacity wise, the XP3 is good for 175Gallon, and the total for the 2 tanks are only 30 gallon, so I don't see a problem with that.
I can get the extra tubing/hose & stuffs myself without any problem

Only thing I am really concerned about is water pressure difference, but if I placed both tank on the same level (water level or floor level), is the pressure gonna be the same?

Well, in sort no. It will be nearly IMPOSSIBLE to balance it like that. All your gonna end up doing is, draining one tank, and overflowing the other.

Agreed. Not worth the risk IMO.
