What I can say is give the epoxy enough time to set 7-10 days is good. If you can make a test moat as well when it is cured the epoxy should snap ie brittle and not bend like plastic. If you see air bubbles in the serfave after you have poured the epoxy flashing a blowtorch flame quickly over it they will disappear.

Make sure that you have sealed the moat so as not to have any leaks.

I found it useful to run a small bead of epoxy around the edge of the moat to seal it (just used a small disposable brush) and let it cure (doesn't have to be really hard - a few hours is probably enough). This seals the unavoidable gaps as the epoxy will run through the tiniest hole and once it has started to run, it will continue and you cannot stop it. That initial bead does not have enough pressure behind it to go right through but will set in the gap instead. I used this the second time I poured epoxy - the leaks were one reason why I had to remove the first attempt and start again.
