Most likely a test kit, net, some chemicals, kent marine is a good brand, yea I proably would get another pump in their I have (2) ZooMed pumps in my 55 gallon tank.

make sure you have a heater,

do you even have sand, LR, anything or just the bare tank with accessories from your buddy

Does this include a return pump? If yes, then your deal got you off to a pretty good start. This isn't specifically an "under the cabinet" item, but since your friend owns a petstore, I'd ask about an RO setup as well. You're going to need RO water on a regular basis.
