In it to win it!
Looking at your previous threads, my advice would be:
1 ) Buy a bottle of FritzZyme TurboStart 900 Saltwater, Instant Ocean BIO-Spira, or Dr. Tim's Aquatics One & Only Live Nitrifying Bacteria for Saltwater Aquaria and add it to your tank to make absolutely sure it's cycled.
2 ) Purchase pre-quarantined fish from a reputable vendor like Dr. reef.
3 ) Buy some good test kits. From what I've heard, I'd recommend Salifert or Redsea test kits for Ammonia, Nitrate, and Phosphate; if you want to keep corals, then I'd add Calcium, Alkalinity, and pH tests from Salifert or Redsea as well.
4 ) Do weekly water changes, probably 10% or so, to help keep parameters stable and in check.
5 ) Feed good, quality food like LRS Reef Frenzy or TDO Chromaboost pellets and supplement that food with some algal foods like Nori and/or New Life Spectrum Marine Fish Pellets.
6 ) Post pictures of your tank setup and tell the community what equipment (powerheads, pumps, filters, heaters, etc.) you're using with the tank so they can give you useful feedback and help you improve your tank setup for both you and your fish.
7 ) Keep asking questions, and keep an open mind to the responses you get.
8 ) Enjoy your tank.
