I had a similar problem when I first did this. You have the tank flipped back so the part you want to put the coco fiber on is facing up, right? You can get a cookie sheet and bake the coco fiber for a few minutes in the oven to help speed up the drying process. Bake it at 350˚ for about 10 minutes. Spread it out evenly on the cookie sheet and make sure it's not too thick. Oh yeah and make sure you really squeeze all the water out of it first. It could take a week for it to air dry if you don't decide to bake it.
well here's the tank now. took me too trys of siliconeing it to get what i was looking for but seams to be good.
first try with dry coco fiber, plenty of bald spots
second try. (filled in the right corner think it looks better)
now i'll i have to wait for is my lighting and drainage. before i start planting this baby

Looks good, I have that same type of fern in my FBT tank. It takes a while to get used to the vivarium, but after it settles in, it grows like crazy. Is that a bromeliad on the right?
