The obvious answer is to get the flow going clockwise for a while...then have it reverse and go counter-clockwise for a while...then...
That's what I did with my hex tank and it worked well. I used a SQWD, but you would probably want more control over the timing of the flow reversal than a SQWD offers.

Untamed - thanks for your response. Can you tell me what the reasoning is behind having the current switch back and forth and why it's neccessary.
Also, how big was your hex tank? Thanks
