Understanding how gilthead sea bream, Sparus aurata L., an important Mediterranean Sea species for aquaculture, respond physiologically to stressors commonly encountered in intensive rearing is important for eiective production, as managing for stress is a major factor in maintaining healthy ¢sh stocks. Our objective was to determine whether holding juvenile gilthead sea bream at a high density (HD), as a chronic stressor, would aiect their physiological responses to a subsequent acute handling stressor. After acclimation at a low density (LD) of 6k g m 3 in 200-L circular tanks containing 33^ 36 g L 1 recirculating seawater at 191C under a normal photoperiod, juvenile 37-g gilthead sea bream were con¢ned for 14 days at a HD of 26 kg m 3 and
