Default Tank should be here tomorrow. Need some help.

Alright if all goes well UPS won’t drop this tank off the back of the truck (first one went smash). I ordered a 29 gallon bio cube from petsolution.com; it is going to be my first salt tank. Soooooo excited!!! I just wanted to run the list of the supplies I already have picked up and was hopping you all can fill in any thing I have missed. So let’s see I have already picked up 40 pounds of live sand, a 100 watt heater, most of the test kits, a hydrometer , the tank of course, and the tank stand. I am pretty sure I am missing a few things, but I think the tank comes with a few of the more important supplies. What else am I going to need to get this bad boy up and running?
