is two filters over kill?

i have two filters a ten gallon and a thirty gallon on a twenty nine gallon tank my theory was to get as much water as i could through the filter and so far ive been succsesfull i change water once a week but the trade off is i can only rinse off the filter so many times till i have to replace it. is this a good idea or overkill

So long the water movement from the filters isnt pushing fish around ur ok. Over filtration isnt bad. U can try using sponges in ur filters those last years.
