Is there a name for the group of corals that require little to no light? If not, what are some examples?

non photosynthetic gorgonians, scleronephteas, many sponges, tubastreas (sun polyps) are a few.

All require heavy feedings and some experience with reef tanks is highly recommended IMHO

some brain corals, mushrooms, and bubble corals do ok with low lighting also *but need some.

sun polyps, mushrooms, and i'm sure there's more but I can't think of any at this time.
