Re: Ice Diving
Yes, you will need something thicker than 200g fleece.  You have a few options. The cheapest route would be to layer more fleece under what you have.  You can get fleece tops and bottoms at most outdoor sporting goods stores.  For my first year of drysuit diving I wore a one piece 300g Softwear fleece undergarment and then I layered a 100g fleece top and bottom from REI under that  This worked out ok but still wasn't as warm as I would have liked.
A second option would be to get a thinsulate undergarment.  I use a DUI 400g thinsulate undergarment and it is much warmer than fleece.  There are other manufacturers besides DUI that make thinsulate undergarments as well. 
Another option would be to try a Weezle undergarment.  I've never tried one but have heard from quite a few local divers that are quite happy with them.
