I am sure many things contribute to good viz, but next time you are enjoying clear water you may want to remember the oyster.

I know. Oyster roasts are the rage here in Charleston SC. I have seen 10000 people gather at Boone Hall Plantation for a day of live music, steamed oyster shucking, and steamed oyster eating.

I guess if you have to cook them....Outside of gulf coast oysters, SC oysters are the best...but they are all best eaten raw IMO

Sure oysters filter water. But there are plenty of filter feeding organisms out there. Clams and mussles (two other bivalves) are also filter feeders. Sponges are filter feeders. Coral filter feeds and has commensal algae.
