Not familar with your type of filter, but just take it apart again.
 
only thing i can recommend is move it up and down in the water to get the water flowing through it, or it is one of them filter that hang on the back.
Or blow in the filter tube.
 
i took it to my favorite lfs and the GM looked at it and said i didnt put it back together properly and got it working for me i dont know how this happened because i have taken it apart before and cleaned it and it has worked properly but anyways it works thanks for trying to help
