I also have 2 grey tanks. This would be a longer range solution for you, but I added a pump that uses the shower/bath sink water to flush the toilet. I now use less fresh water and the grey tank fills up slower. I don't use the kitchen grey water but the shower water does not smell and is suitable for flushing.
Great Idea how did you go about it?
The grey water flush system is actually quite simple. We have a new tap in the grey water tank and a demand-type water pump and a filter to catch hair and other small debris that could clog the pump. We cut into the fresh water supply for the toilet and added valves and tees so we could select between fresh water and grey water. Check valves were added to make sure no grey water could contaminate the fresh water. We are very happy with the outcome.
