Other than fresh water without disinfectants that is it. The best additive for any tank is plenty of fresh clean water. Save the money you would have spent on additives to upgrade water changing gear, you will be better off.

you can get something like STRESS ZYME+ witch just give a boost of good bacteria to your tank and it helps you cycle it ..... my tank is cycled but i add a few drops just to keep the balance and keep the tank clean

does it. or does it just say it will? please dont fall for the sales talk. a well kept tank needs no more than Tolak says above. honest!

The only chemical you want to be using is a tap water dechlorinater(Seachem Prime or Tetra Aquasafe). Like Tolak said invest in some good water changing equipment(e.g gravel cleaner)instead of chemicals.
