Had trouble with mine, ended up using plumbers wrench to open it up.
Get one of those rubber jar opener things. It's not that tight, just a nightmare to get a decent grip of.
If you really get in a bind, you can prise the two parts from each other with a screwdriver (be very careful!). 9/10, it won't damage the threads due to the plastic being pretty tough.

Hi
it's not necessary to dismantle it in order to clean it
just drop it in bleach solution, then rinse very well (or dip in tetra aquasafe or a similar product, even vinegar works as it is an acid and neutralizes the strong base that bleach is).
