  • Stoa Scleractinia Ep4 Part 1. Bridget Hedderman on educating aspiring ecologist through Ecofieldtrips.
    2021/04/14
    Bridget Hedderman is a biologist, conservationist and educator who co-founded Ecofieldtrips (http://www.ecofieldtrips.com.sg/). Ecofieldtrips provides high quality ecology experiences in a variety of locations and ecosystems; from tropical rain-forests and reefs in Malaysia to mountains in Nepal.

    Bridgette and her co-founder Helen Newman started Ecofieldtips in Singapore in 1997 with the aim to provided opportunities for kids to get out of the classroom and be immersed in nature.They provided these services for schools all around the world and have inspired many ecologists in doing so.

    Ecofieldtrips also provide young career ecologists with opportunities to work in the field of ecology and gain valuable experiences in education and fieldwork. In this podcast Bridget talks about the inspirations to start Ecofieldtrips and the importance of outdoor education when studying Ecology. Anyone interested in pursuing a career in biological sciences should be sure to watch and listen to Bridget's experiences.

  • Stoa Scleractinia Ep3 Part 6 The advantages of using closed circuit rebreathers (CCR) for diving activities
    2021/03/17
    Here, Tom Bowling explains how he went from managing a clam farm in the Marshall Islands to setting up BIOTA in Palau.

    One of the tools Tom has started to use for his fish collections is the closed circuit rebreather (CCR). Compared to conventional open circuit SCUBA diving systems, the CCR allows for much longer bottom time and optimum Nitrgen levels in the gas being breathed. They also allow the diver to get much closer to marine life as the bubbles are no longer a factor, and therefore the diver is further immersed into nature.

    Although, CCR's were once considered a dangerous tool, there have been significant improvements in the technology and safety for using them for all kinds of diving activities. Tom's choice of CCR is the JJ-CCR (www.jj-ccr.com) , which he uses with Shearwater Research diving computers (https://www.shearwater.com/) to get the most out of his occupational dives.

    *Always seek appropriate training and certification from recognized facilities when considering using any type of diving equipment that is new to you (including CCR).


    "Nature seemed to me full of wonders, and I wanted to steep myself in them. Every stone, every plant, every single thing seemed alive and indescribably marvelous. I immersed myself in nature, crawled, as it were, into the very essence of nature and away from the whole human world." - Carl Jung

  • Stoa Scleractinia Ep3 Part 5 Tom Bowling on winning the 2019 MACNA award and innovations in breeding Mandarin Fish
    2021/03/11
    BIOTA has made innovations in Aquaculture and the ornamental fish trade that are being recognized at an International level. In 2019 Tom Bowling won the Marine Aquarium Societies of North America (MACNA) Aquarist of the year award.

    They have perfected the art of breeding wild caught fish and raising their offspring in captivity. The Captive bred fish they sell, have a higher survival throughout the entire process of the ornamental fish trade. From packing and exporting to maintaining in in aquariums, the fish BITOA are an excellent example of how far the Aquaculture industry has come.

    One of the most known ornamental species BIOTA sell is the Mandarin Fish (Synchiropus splendidus), which are notoriously difficult to keep alive in tanks. The Mandarin Fish raised in BITOA tanks are weaned onto pellets and even come to the surface to feed, which is something that would never happen with a wild caught fish of this species.


    BITOA created the BIOTA aquarium, which is a product designed to help people learn how to keep ornamental fish in a step-by-step process. This gives confidence in both the buyer and the seller that these precious fish will survive in the best conditions possible.


    "We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them." - Albert Einstein
