Probably shrooms would be the only one you can keep.

You could keep non-photosynthetic corals if you were willing to spot feed

Have to keep up with water quality. Constant target feeding in such a small volume of water may lead to pollution.

I agree. It all depends on how much time you want to spent on your tank.
