    Not really. You probably should avoid putting heavily polluted water through them though. They are the oceans waste buckets for poo water.

        Pollution easily kills shellfish. If anything, that’s an indication that they are clean and from clean places. Oysters feed of phytoplankton, not waste/garbage and pollution.

        More for me.

        Shell fish is not to be harvested after storm water events due to the increased fecal matter/particulate content of rivers. So I should be good.
