Not sure how your drains are setup, but you could potentially attach some pipes so that they pull water from the bottom of the tank.

If that's not an option, making your own gravel vac is easy...all parts bought at my local hardware store. It's over 4' tall. The black tubing is 1.5" sump pump discharge tubing and drains some serious amounts of water.

So I rearranged everything. I now have an FX5 in the back corner, with the powerheads facing toward it. Hopefully that will take care of things. If not, it looks like I'll have to invest in an RO drip system sooner than I thought.
 
How much decor do you have in the tank? Also another thought is to add another pump just to circulate water , continuous loop just pushing the water around. What's the pumps gph running in your tank? Sand or gravel? what's the filtration??
