Doing a 1:1 ratio. I’m worried that the substrate level will be too thin, I also have a option of using a 27Qt sterilite, which one would you suggest, thanks

I’d use the 27 quart.

Thank you! With this amount of contents inside the monotub how high should I drill the FEA holes? Thanks and sorry if this is a dumb question, it’s my first time

It’s not possible for me to say how high the holes will need to be cause I don’t really know how much substrate you really have. We measure substrate by volume not by weight. If the bulk media is overcapacity that will make it weigh more but have less volume. Few people even know what 4 lbs of grain even looks like, we’re so used to dealing in volume.

The other issue is we don’t know the specific dimensions of your tub. Without that we won’t really have much idea how much footprint the tub has. If I am to just guess I would say drill the lower holes 4” up and that way at least you have room for a 3” sub + casing if you need one.
