I'm setting up a lion fish tank and would like to know what corals are safe in the tank and will not be eaten?

I don't think a Lion will bother any of your corals (or snails, crabs, clams)
 
It would bother small fish and shrimp, for sure

I agree with Bob.  They are not nippers.

Corals are just fine. They just eat any fish or shrimp they can fit in their mouth which can open very wide.
