Not really, they more or less live off of their zooxanthellae (algae). Some you can get to eat (I've seen one even try to eat a clownfish) but most, at least in my experience, don't need to be fed directly. You can try brine shrimp, mysid shrimp and pellets but you'll probably find they won't even take them.

Also, don't worry about the light or the flow too much. Mushrooms can move if they're unhappy where they are and when they do they leave a trail of babies.
