Welcome to the hobby, these forums are the best ways to figure out how you want to run your aquarium. There are tons of different ways to set up your tank. Here's a few things:

Tank, sand (optional), live rock, saltwater, heater, light (type of light depends on if you're keeping coral and if so what types), filtration (sump, all in one, canister, etc) refractometer, water test kit, powerhead (means for additional water flow), cleanup crew (snails, crabs, etc. ). It's a money pit as all hobbies can be, there's many ways to go broke. Good luck

definitely look at market sections. sometimes people are getting out of the hobby and you can just by an entire system for a good price

Welcome Mike. I have a line on a used in great shape 90 gal reef ready for 400. With stand and canopy. Think it comes with a light and return pump too.
