I got a light on my dash I don't know what it is...
It looks like a box, with a water level, and an arrow pointing down inside the box.
I have no manual or anything.
I checked all of my fluids.
Sorry this is a stupid question.

coolant level low
add more coolant to the little black bottle and if the radiator needs more it will take it if that does not make it go away you prob have a bad sensor

99% of the time this is due to a bad sensor rather than the coolant actually being low. The sensor is in the radiator about 4 inches below the cap. If you don't feel like replacing it (they are about $50) you can just unplug the connector and the light will go out. Take your battery out to gain access to the connector.

Is there another place where you can buy them that you know of?
Thanks in advance
