only one way to find out...

We'll have to do some calculations...

one quart = .95 litres.
now we multiply .95 by 3.5 and we get 3.7

That means each of your WBS bags has 3.7 L of WBS.

Finally, we devide 81 by 3.7 and we get...
21.98, which we round up to 22...

So, in answer to your question, you'll need 22 bags of 3.5 quart jars to FILL your tub. Course, you'll prob need to do only 17 or 18 so you'll have enough room for a casing layer

Good luck:thumbup:

how tall is the tub? cause if you FILL that .. thats gonna be one hell of a deep substrate.

I read somewhere that RECOMMENDED substrate depth is no deeper than 5 inches. 5 even maybe being too deep.

just a heads up. maybe search that topic.. you'll be glad ya did.

With that setup I would go 4:1 ratio- 4 parts medium to each 1 part of spawn. 85L? I would spawn 1/4 that area at most if your going for a "set it and forget it" function. And lots of holes (even below the substrate) for airflow.
