    I would just go to a LFS(Local fish store) and ask them for a bottle, even a place thats not just a fish store like a Pet World will carry all those additives. I wouldn't be adding anything really till you know your tank is stabilized and everyone is doing well. Also FYI on the starfish, If you plan on keeping corals, they arn't friends to them most of the time. I do a few different foods that my clowns all love after being in the tank and established to it. I feed them cyclop-eeze(dry flake), frozen Formula 1 cubes, fozen blood worms and once in a while I will get live brine from the LFS for like a dollar(enough to last a long time, don't ever put it all in the tank as it can cause ammonia spikes). I havn't done mysis shrimp yet as mine are only about a 1.5" and am waiting for them to get a little bigger. ALSO, fyi if your fish are not big, they really cant eat mysis too well.

    Oh yeah, as I have learned and Im sure everyone else has in this hobby, Patience is Key (also a virtue) to success. Everyone always wants to jump into the pond, not slowly test the waters first;D
