yep, right above your sub level, and for 6 qts and a brick your gonna need a bigger tub or more small ones

It doesn't matter what i think of you...all that matters is clean spawn

You need a 66 qt tub so 18 gal is about right

That one is big enough but I'd recommend getting a clear one. Sterilite makes a clear 66qt that is perfect

1) right above your sub level and 2 up top
2)dump qts of water in the tote, count them, divide

A 18 gallon roughneck which you describe is fine... sub level should be 4"  so the center of your 2.5" holes should go at least 5 3/4" from the bottom for proper clearance

The pics above is a 66qt and the lower holes are about 4 inches from the bottom

I like to have between 1.5 and 2 inch holes but 1 inch will probably work
