New tank equipment

[dsdmsc]

I have a 75 gallon tank that i have used for fresh water for the last 3 years. I moved and would now like to setup this tank as
a salt water tank but not familier with what equipment I will need to start a saltwater tank. I would appreciate any help on what i need to setup this tank.
Thank you
David

For starter:
-tank and stand
-heater
-substrate(what you are going to put in the bottom of the tank, live sand, crushed coral)
-Some type of filtration (wet/dry, canister filter)
-Live rock (don't have to have would be recommended)
-Salt (to make salt water)
-RO/di water (very healthy water for the fish)
I am drawing a blank. That is for starters. You might also want to invest in a protein skimmer. Welcome to saltwater. It is a great hobby. It can also be an expensive hobby. Any other ????
