ozone can be very harmful to health, dont use one unless yr grow is away from where u live. For 2-3 plants extraction via a carbon filter will be fine.

I personally would keep the rooms intakes and exhausts independent of eachother, because the already heated air from yr veg room will cause you problems in yr flower room(drawing already warm air through yr cooltubes will greatly reduce their efficiency) that inline fan i use is 5" and pulls 240 cubic metres per hour, but my bloom tent is only 1.2x1.2x2m il let u do the math to convert that to cfm lol. id put yr 2 hps in cooltubes inline with maybe 3' of duct inbetween the two tubes then use the same configuration as me with fan and filter mounted to the top of yr room in the middle of the ceiling, blowing down to the cooltubes then out the room, and the same with the veg room using the halides, but id use a minimum of an 8" inline fan/filter/ducting for each room with duct reducers at cooltube sites, maybe even 10" because of the larger room sizes and two cooltubes per room. Ensure both rooms are sealed and airtight apart from yr passive intakes to ensure air is only being drawn thru the passives low down in the room and drawn over/thru the plants before it reaches the filter/fan. It is possible to extract/filter air from two rooms using one fan/filter but i wouldnt do it with the cooltubes, by using large passives in veg room then light baffled vents or ducts between the two rooms then use the biggest extract fan/filter/duct you can get on the outside of flower room sucking air thru both rooms and filtering by blowing thru the filter instead of sucking thru.
wow, so you're really going for a pretty comprehensive set-up. of course, i'd rather have an exhaust for both flower and veg, but i'm trying to think of cheap ways to do it, and purchasing two (good) fans might be pushing the budget a bit. however, the heat problem you mentioned is probably the limiting factor in my one-fan design--also, by the time the air reaches the flower room, it will have circulated in the veg room for a few minutes, so CO2 levels will have diminished by then... hmmm.

Regarding lights, I have access to multiple Sunleaves 1000W light fixtures with switchable ballasts and bulbs galore. I would rather have 1 600W HPS and 1 600W MH, but since I have free use of these (expensive) lights then my plan was to use a single 1000W HPS and maybe eventually add a 1000W MH for mixing up the spectrum. That is, however, alot of heat. Also, it seems like using a 1000W MH in the veg would be overkill. Actually, "veg" might be misleading... i don't really plan to do much 'vegging' just raise the mommies (on CFLs and Fl. tubes) and root the clones, then straight into the flower chamber.
