I am new to the hobby/obsetion and am thinking about putting cowries, tiger in particular, in my tank and was wondering if anybody has any advice for me.

I was told at AT that they might eat anemones.

The best cowrie for your tank is the Ring Cowrie. I have four of them in my tank. They don't get very large so you don't have to worry about them knocking stuff over:

I also have Ring Cowries. They are great!

I would avoid the Tiger. They are beautiful but may not be reef safe and because of size, may die from lack of food.
