If you are running two filters, simply mount them separately and run them. Each will get the flow it is designed to use and each will do its job. I only use multiple filters on one tank because I figure one spare filter, ready to go with a bacterial colony, is enough to cover any equipment failures I might have. That spare ran on the same 120 gallon community tank for years before I actually needed it. When I did need it, I simply carried it to the tank that had lost a filter and plugged it in. I believe in being prepared for failures but I am not fanatic about it. It turned out to take me over 3 months to replace the failed filter and I did not worry about not having a spare that whole time.
