Hydor water deflectors???

Will they work in a vertical position? I had an idea to attach one to a pvc pipe and point it strait down from the top of the tank in order to create a rotating flow. Kind of like a wavysea swirl.

They don't work for very long in their normal position in my experience. . Maybe they would work better vertically. Goodluck.
