Species to species gorgonians can occupy completely different niches. If you have the same species I do it's needs are completely opposite. From what I understand Tom's requires high lighting and doesn't have super picky feeding. The species I keep would cover in algae in high lighting and not make it. Mine are kept in low lighting(most just under actinic) and I feed every day. Supposedly you can get away with feeding every other day and I miss some days, but I try not to. After a day and a half of no food you can tell mine is not happy at all.
I will try to get some photos posted of mine.
