if this is just a frag tank, why don't you plumb it into the main system? then you won't need to add anything but eggcrate.
if you can't do this, i'd set it up just like a regular reef tank. live rock, a halide, a heater, and waterchanges.
i would use new water for waterchanges-not old water from the display!
as far as livestock- i would add "working animals", like a couple hermits, a couple snails...maybe a peppermint shrimp...just things that will keep everything clean and trimmed.
