Usual practice is to choose what depth you want to be neutral at, and add or remove weight from your belt until you achieve this. At these sort of depths you'd want to be neutral at roughly half your target depth, so I'd suggest increasing the weight until you hit neutral buoyancy at 5m. This is for inhale diving. As the others say, it's a very good idea to get plenty of experience with inhale diving before you start playing around with FRC.
