Fish Tank Bulk Grow

Hey there, I am totally new to growin zoomers but have done some research and figure that some people here can help me out. To start I ordered 2 spawn bags from mushbox, since it's more economical and discrete than going through the hassle of creating my own spawn bag. I will in the future however, once I'm more familiar, and I don't want any duds! Anyways, since I live in Vancouver I can buy spore syringes like nothin. So I've got my syringe, a fish tank and spawn bags. One of the bags is a compost/verm bag, the other being wild bird seed. I'm going to grow the compost bag on its own but with the WBS I plan on turning it into bulk. My questions to you all are: What is the most affordable/easiest bulk substrate for spawn bags? Does 3% stevia leaf incorporated into the bulk increase shroom potency? What do I need to cover my fish tank with? When should I let the bulk 'breathe'? Also, when I inoculate my bags how many cc's is appropriate and how can I incubate them? Possibly in the fish tank since there is a thermometer? Thanks to anyone who responds!

You could spawn the WBS to the compost.

not just for spawn bags but coir+verm is pretty popular and easy with great results

nope

Make a monotub or SGFC or Greenhouse. Ditch the fish tank

You should know that there's colonization which it only needs gas exchange. Then you put it into fruiting conditions at which point it needs constant FAE

I don't know how many CC's I use quart jars but usually less is more with spore inoculations. Don't incubate them at all if your room temperature is room temperature.
