well, you'll want a four to five inch substrate depth, and you will probably use about 3 bricks of coir, maybe even 4, to achieve that level, in that size of a tub, you will need at least 8 quarts, or 10 for best results even, to colonize that, you also have to think about additives, you will mos def need a pH buffer, preferably a long term one like adding eggshell and calcium carbonate. You'll most like want to add 4 or 5 quarts of Vermiculite to hold moisture. You'll prbly want some spent dried coffee grounds for (N).

this is just what I would do, not saying it's the absolute must way, soon you'll get all sorts of opinions on this matter.
