Maybe a ground probe. Not huge but I would do it for the price of them.

I'd pop for either more, or more powerful PHs. It's my understanding that for a reef tank, you'll want to be getting up around 20x or more turnover. You'll also probably want a few more laying around for the reasons below . . .
While you're at it, go ahead and get at least one, two would be better, you might even want three, extra heaters and thermometers. If you go for a QT, that'll take up a heater and thermo, you'll want a heater and thermo for the water you prep for water change. If you end up curing/storing LR in a seperate container, yep another heater and thermo (And PH). PHs, beside agitating your water change water and LR storage, are great for moving water from one container to another. Also handy to have around in case an in-tank one fails. As an example, at this very minute I have two batches of water going . . . 20g to either go into the QT or main tank (Tank water then into QT), and another 8g to change the water in my LR storage bin, both using a PH and heater (only have one thermo to share between them).
Not sure what the air pump is for, unless it's to drive your skimmer.
Get more than one SHOCK BUSTER outlet. I have two of their quad units and am using three outlets per, and also I have their inline GFI unit for my lights.
Maybe another container of salt, it's amazing how much you'll go through. I have a 90g that's been up for a little over a month and since I'm curing my LR in my tank which requires some major water changes, have a bucket for extra LR storage and curing that requires water changes, and setting up a QT, I'm already nearly halfway through my second 58lb bucket of Oceanic salt.
Lastly, buckets, buckets, and more buckets! A couple of 5 gallons, a few larger ones (20g-30g) and extra vinyl tubing.
Don't see a RO/DI unit on your list, but you can pick one up at a lot of other places.

Yep your going to want to get MORE flow in the tank for a 135 reef.

I dont see a return pump. Is the tank drilled? If not you need an overflow box and a returmn pump. Drop the air pump and bubble wand. ---dont want air in a saltwater setup. If you want to do it right drop the maxi jets and get a seio or do the maxi jet mods. or get an extra pump and do a closed loop. drop the coralife power strips, and just go to lowes and get shockbuster outlets and regular timers. I have heard alot of bad things about the power strips...plus it is cheaper with regular timers.
keep on giving setup list and we will keep giving advise...lol
