Water conditioners and other additives are a huge waste for the new reefer. The markup on a bottle of basically nothing is huge and the LFS pushes them for obvious reasons, it's where they make their real money.
Unless your pulling water from the Tar Sands I would not bother with conditioners. Buffers and additives are meant for established tanks. Dosing a new tank will only result in weird test results and in worse case crashed tanks. And like everyone else has rightly said... Go slow.

my plans were to leave it for at least a month before adding anything else. I know i rushed a bit that much i figured on my own. I had clear water this morning then i added the 2 things and i ended up with a cloudy tank. So from now on just my weekly water changes with my RO water is all i'm going to do and see were it leads me. My deltec 300 skimmer should be in soon and i will be running that so it should be some added help when that comes.
Thanks
