What organ do zebrafish larvae mostly use for osmo/ionoregulation?

Hi, I'm starting a project on the osmo/ionoregulation of zebrafish larvae (at exactly 6 days post-hatching). At this early life stage, I'm wondering if the osmo/ionoregulation is mostly done by gills or by the skin (or both?)?

Somebody has a good reference paper on that matter?

Thank you all.
