What kind of drywall anchors should I use with metal studs?
Depends on what you're hanging. If it's not too great of a load I use
toggle bolts or Molly anchors.

It's a wood plaque that weighs about 3 lbs.
If it's that small, I'd use those little plastic inserts.
Drill a slightly undersized hole in the drywall, push them in & use a
small screw.
Or alternatively use picture hooks.
For really heavy loads, self-drilling / self-taping sheet metal screws
into the steel studs provide a very strong connection.
What is the tape for?
