Get a 15-20# tank.  Used, they can be had for $100 or so.  Replacement is
seldom, like once per year or even longer.  You will need to run a
separate needle valve per tank (as noted in last post), but you can find
$20 needle valves to fit the bill.  I've even done this with cheap $12
needle valves to some success (I put a picture for your viewing at
