I think you should try to find oysters (or clams) that are of a size that they will be eaten cleanly within a single day....12 hrs or so. I don't think you would want any uneaten portion of anything sitting overnight, if possible.

A good clean up crew should polish off anything uneaten by the fish in less than a day.
