Are Microplastics Impairing Marine Fish Larviculture?—Preliminary Results with <i>Argyrosomus regius</i>

The presence of small-sized (<300 µm) microplastics (MPs) in aquaculture facilities may threaten finfish hatchery, as their (in)voluntary ingestion by fish larvae may compromise nutritional requirements during early ontogeny, and consequently larval health and performance.
