A tubeless tire has no tube. It requires a special rim, special rim tape and a special valve. Using the Stan's NoTubes system you can convert regular rims to tubeless but this requires adding a bunch gunk.
Is this your first mountain bike? No need going tubeless as the only benefit to going tubeless is to run low pressures.
