I'd add the LR and let the system run for at least a week before testing. This will give the water alittle time to stabalize the PH. Theres gonna be alot of leaching intially from the LR, Sand, and Agronite. Like Hoops said Go Slow and let the test kit tell you when it's safe to add fish. You might be suprised how much die back actually occurs on LR via transport. I'd wait til' nitrates read 20 ppm before adding each fish, invert or corals. Alot of ppl add their clean up crews 1st or w/ their 1st fish - much easier to swallow loosing $1 hermits and snails then $50 Fish.
With a 29 gal tank bio-balls are pretty much a waste of space. They are good for converting large amounts of fish urine in larger overstocked tanks. 3 lil' fish won't produce that much.
Target 1.025 salinity daily - this will allow for evaporation to enssure salinity doesn't exceed 1.026.
