All of the substrate needs to be sand castle consistency. If your sand is dry now, you need to add water to it as well. You can mix the sand and EE together and then add dechlorinated water and mix it up until it's all the right consistency.

Wet the ee. Till you can squeeze it without it dripping. If any crabs are buried you can add 1 inch every 24hrs. Just don't pat it down. The crabs will mix it up.

With EE, it's so lightweight you could easily do 2 inches a day without much worries.

I also wouldnt worry about mixing it in, the crabs will do that themselves.
