My blastos do great in low light, practically shaded.

Oh sweet
 
Aren't those extremely hard to take care of?
Nope!

My fathead dendrophyllia colony likes a nice random mid/higher flow. In my experience, the higher flow makes them extend and are usually always out.

I spot feed them once, sometimes twice a week. They're situated near the feeding area of my tank, and are excellent at catching food.

You can see the new "heads" on the lower left.

 
I'd do blastos. My red cynarina also liked low light and easy flow. Some shrooms do well in lower light.
Good call on the cynarina. That's a high impact coral as well.
 
Blastos and mushrooms as mentioned are a good choice, I’ve got a couple leptastrea that are doing very well in low light as well
