Biofouling is one of the biggest problems in aquaculture. [13] Biofouling occurs on non-copper materials in the marine environment, including fish pen surfaces and nettings. [2] For example, it was noted that the open area of a mesh immersed for only seven days in a Tasmanian aquaculture operation decreased by 37% as a result of biofouling. [14]
