I suggest you fill it back up drive it for maybe 500mi then change it again if u wanna flush it. Sometimes its not good to change it all at once if its been a lot of miles since the last time as it could "shock" the tranny with the pressure change new fluid can give.

Yes make sure the car is running when you fill it and check the level, make sure after each time you add fluid to push the brake and put the gear shift into each spot for about 3 seconds to make sure your getting any and all air bubbles out and getting a correct reading.
