if there is anything else i might need could someone please let me know?
and i also need to know how much of rock, sand etc... would i need?

I would go with one or the other unless your pretty experienced. You also might want to checkout the saltwater aquarium beginners guide at www.fishlore.com . Its pretty helpful I would explain it but you can just go read it for yourself it will prolly make more sense =).
