Not familiar with those tanks and media baskets.
Normally in the direction of flow, you go from the course filter material to the finest.
Salt. Go with what's easy to get for you. Just choose a reef based salt.
Water. Make your own if you can. Buy a Rodi filter and mount it under your sink. I used to have it under my bathroom sink when I lived in an apartment. That way you can run the hoses to the bathtub and not have to worry about overflowing water making a mess. If not l, try and find a water place near you that can test for tds in their water being sold. Ideal is zero tds.
I use salifert test kits. I'm used to them and they're fairly accurate. Some prefer red Sea as well.
