I would recommend that you arrange your plumbing so it goes intake, pump, filter, return. otherwise you risk burning out your pump early, you never want to restict the intake of the pump more than you have to, pumps work better pushing water, not pulling it. and your pump is working hard trying to pull the water through the filter, you should see more flow if it is pushing the water because pumps are more efficent at pushing
