Can I attach a strobe to my underwater camera housing?

I have a Casio Exilim EX- Z1080 which I bought with an underwater housing, the EWC – 90 or similar, to take pictures while I scuba dive. Now I’ve recently become more interested in my photography and want to maximize the quality of my pictures by adding a strobe. Unfortunately, when I bought the camera, I didn’t think of this at the time and apparently the housing doesn’t support a strobe. However, at the bottom of the housing it has a screw in connector which looks like it could fit some sort of arm for the strobe. I’m wondering if there are any strobes that I can connect to my housing? I really don’t to fork out money for a new camera as the camera is decent enough with 10.1 mega pixels which is what most underwater camera like Sea & Sea are. So can some point me in the right direction?
Thanks in advanced.

    Yes, Sunpak makes an underwater strobe, which you can attach to the tripod socket (that the screw in connector). It is triggered by a sensor which sees the camera flash going off, and this triggers the attached strobe simultaneously. It’ll cost about $170.
