If they were close enough together (the tanks) I would personally just cut the line and add a "T" connector with another check valve going to the other tank.. not sure how that would affect the amount of co2 being injected into each tank.. might have to increase the bbs

I have run 3 tanks off one system. Currently have 2 running. This is what I use on my Milwaukee Regulator system

You can't just use a T to split the flow as one tank will get all the CO2 and the other will get none. What you need is a manifold to split the flows and balance the pressures. In addition you'll want one needle valve per aquarium, and I'd recommend one check valve per aquarium.

so any ideas about the system i linked?

Yes, that should work.
