My name Kecebong Juling (24 male). I’m the student college from Marine Science, Hasanuddin University, Macassart, Indonesia. Now, I want to do research. My tittle research is : Distribution of Sea Cucumber, Relation With Environment Character in Wanci Island, Wakatobi Archipelago, South East Sulawesi, Indonesian. In this time, I will try to making research proposal.
Anyway, the parameter that I want to meassure is Physic Oceanography (temperature, salinity, velocity, depth), Chemical Oceanography (Dissolved Oxygen, pH), Marine Biology (Identification species of the sea cucumber), and Sedimentation ( Sediment texture, and Totally Suspended Sediment). My research location in the Coral Reefs, Sand, and SSea grass and I use Factorial Exam Data to describe the distribution of sea cucumber, and I want to find out what the influence of these things to the sea cucumber.
I have problem to find out information about sea cucumber ecology, especially, role ecology. Maybe somebody have information about this? Or can you help me to give me the link or website or anything that have relation with the information ??
By the way, do you now how i can get fund this research ?? and what is the condition to get this fund ?
Thanks for you attention….^_^
Best Regards,
Kecebong Juling
The sea cucumber (also known as trepang, bêche-de-mer, or ambiguously, sea slug) is an echinoderm of the class Holothuroidea, with an elongated body and leathery skin, which is found on the sea floor worldwide. It is so named because of its cucumber-like shape. The body contains a single, branched gonad. Like all echinoderms, sea cucumbers have an endoskeleton just below the skin, calcified structures that are usually reduced to isolated microscopic ossicles (or sclerietes) joined by connective tissue. These can sometimes be enlarged to flattened plates, forming an armour. In pelagic species (Order Elasipodida, family Pelagothuriidae), the skeleton is often absent[1].

I have a cichlid that is red and it gets black stripes on it when it is diplaying itself to my other cichlids(Bumblebee, Electric Yellow, Auratus, Acei, Johannii) or when it gets mad at another fish. It stays nesr the bottom to the middle of the tank. It has a timid nature just like the acei and the electric yellow. I know a picture would help with the identification but my camera is broken, so any help at all would be apprecited greatly. thanks!!!
Are the stripes vertical? As far as I know, there are no mbuna which are red with black vertical stripes. There's the Red Zebra which is red without stripes, and there's the Red Top Zebra which has a dark striped body and a red fin. Male Kenyii have black vertical stripes, but are a golden yellow/orange colour. Unless the stripes are horizontal instead of vertical, and the colour is more of an orange than a red, then it could be a female Johannii. It's also possible you've got a hybrid. Without photos, all of this is just blind guesswork, really. Where did you get the fish? Was it not identified at the purchaser?
Are your fish all juveniles? How large is your tank? It's quite possible you may have problems down the road, having mixed Bumblebees and Auratus. Auratus are very aggressive to begin with, but can be really vicious toward con-specifics. If your tank is big enough (and I mean BIG - at least 120 gallons) and stocked heavily enough to dilute the aggression, you might be okay, but it's pretty risky.

. . Someone just posed a question about fishing licenses. Here's a true story. My husband and I are avid sport fishermen. We were in our boat lobster diving in the Keys when I kid you not, a helicopter hovered over our boat, and demanded through a bull horn to see our fishing licenses. Not one, but three agents came down a rope, boarded our boat, and physically inspected the licenses to make sure they were valid. My husband was underwater at the time, so I was alone with my four-year-old son in the boat. We were playing "I Spy" - neither of looked dubious in any way. So my question is, why can't cops ask to see identification papers of people who are reasonably suspected of being illegal? P.S. our boat was searched for proper equipment as well . . .
Wow. That's quite a story! And it almost seems like it was worth the hassle to be boarded by the agents just so you have a the story to tell. I hope you got some pictures with them on your boat 
But what it boils down to is how much intrusion of the government are you willing to accept in your daily life in order to reduce crime or to reduce illegal immigration or terrorism or whatever. If this same thing happened EVERY time you went fishing I'd bet it would stop being a neat story and start to get annoying. And then maybe the preventative measures being taken (the boarding of your boat) might no longer be worth the benefit (reducing illegal fishing to a certain degree). Same thing applies to asking about immigration status.
Just a thought.

My LFS has a wrasse that I cannot find any info on. It is about 2 inches long, mostly black with a single blue/purple stripe down its sides. I have looked all over the web. The tag at the store calls it a purple wrasse…but it doesn't look like what I have found on the web, any ideas….I want to make sure its compatable with my current fish.
a link with info would be very helpful.
I CAN'T FIND A PICTURE…THATS WHAT IM LOOKING FOR.
Many wrasse species have different coloration as a juvenile and as an adult fish. In fact, some are so different that some taxonomist incorrectly described the same fish as two different species.
At 2 inches I'm sure the wrasse is still a juvenile. If some of the website you've searched posted only a picture of it as an adult (without posting a juvenile pic) then you might never find a picture of it.
Try searching for "cleaner wrasse" though, you might get lucky. Hope this helps.
