Brand new to saltwater

[7h0m4s]

Hello guys, long story short my neighbors moving and giving away his old tank that’s been sitting.I’m lucky enough to get it, it’s an redsea 260. (It’s a bit dirty but hopefully a little tlc can make it work). I’m brand new to this and have always wanted to start a reef tank, I wanted to ask you guys with a bit more experience should I be upgrading /updating equipment from this tank? Also what are some basic maintenance items you guys recommend like test kits and etc. my short term goal is to be able to keep this tank alive for 5 months with live rock before doing crazy. Thank guys any tip is appreciated.
