The aim of this work was to evaluate two functional feeds for the gilthead seabream, Sparus aurata , containing low inclusion of two microalgae-based products (LB-GREENboost, LB Gb ; and LB-GUThealth, LB Gh ). Fish (12–13 g) were fed for 13 weeks a control diet or one of the four diets supplemented...
