As always, it behooves you to research as much as possible on your own.
EDIT: Also, since it's an active science, you can blaze new paths. Seems like shellfish aren't very popular - maybe you can figure out how to do them successfully. Fresh oysters whenever you want.
You really need a natural marsh/tidal system to do sessile critters like oyster or clams, which are very popular, of course. Too much nutrient exchange required to do it in a small, captive environment.
Plus, why not just let the ocean do the work for you? You also aren't going to be growing many plants off of such a system. You might be able to produce some algae, but this would also have to be done in a protected natural environment (though, growing algae like that would be a huge problem in an open water system)
