(A) Diagram of the acoustic treatment tank. The tank rested on top of two granite plaques separated by anti-vibratory rubber pads. Inside, a custom-made net cylinder containing zebrafish egg/larvae was suspended 7 cm above an underwater speaker (UW30, Lubel Labs, Ohio, USA) that rested on top of a polyurethane sponge. (B) Oscillogram of sound files used for playbacks. Control- silent conditions, CN- continuous noise at either 130 (CN₁₃₀) or 150 dB re 1 μPa (CN₁₅₀), IN- intermittent regime with random short noise segments (IN1): 5–12 s duration spaced by silent intervals of 1–120 s (total noise exposure of c. 15%); medium noise segments (IN2): 30–60 s interspaced by 1–10 min silence (similar noise exposure to IN1); and long noise segments (IN3) of 15 min separated by 15 min silent periods (about 50% overall noise).
