Are you on the aquariums sub here? :)
I want to get a saltwater tanks someday. It looks a bit intimidating to see people putting in chemicals every 6 hours on YT channels, but I want to try it. Already have a small freshwater tank here!
I am not, I will have to go join.
If you're just looking to get a salt water fish only tank, then there is no need to add anything once your tank is cycled and you've got fish in it. Just like freshwater, the types of fish you have dictate the level of difficulty in care. Just do some searches on beginner salt water aquarium guides and you should find a lot of results with walkthrus.
Oh yeah! I think I'd want to try corals, too. I love planted tanks, and miss the vibrant reefs of my childhood, which humanity has since wrecked pretty bad. Even if its just a small tank, it would be nice to have a small sliver of the natural world with me. :)
