I have a Niger Trigger, a Porcupine Puffer, and a Regal Tang. Will any of these eat any corals. I want some but I don't want them to get destroyed, obviously.

No you should not mix puffs with corals, that is the rule. On the flip side I have a 8" porc who never shows interest in any of my corals.
Just my .2.

Not only will they destroy your corals but they all are big waste producers. It would be hard to keep the water "clean" enough to keep corals except for maybe zoos and shrooms.
