    If you don't have any fish or shrimp in there, and you want the HC to fill in quickly, you could try the dry start method. That is, simply fill the tank up to the substrate line and keep the substrate wet. The HC will be able to pull CO2 directly from the air while being fed nutrients directly.

    you're dosing something similar to seachem excel for carbon right

    the HC requires a large amount of CO2 naturally
    meaning the carbon dosing should be quite high also
