Netting for Fish Farms

Andrew has been working on this research for 3 years. He is researching the design and use of copper alloy netting for ocean going fish farm enclosures. The usual nylon netting hosts a great deal of deal of sea life quickly, which clogs the nets and weighs them down. The copper netting does not, so stays open. These pictures show some nylon netting and copper netting deployed with it, some pics of assembly and deployment of a new enclosure, and the copper enclosure at recovery, about 7 months out I think.
