Re: oyster
These are mussels. Depending on the source, they are freshwater or seafaring.
Note that mussels attach themselves to rock structures and extract their food from water currents. Therefore , it is essential to have good water flow around them which carries a source of food also.
I do not think such an environment can be created in a small tank. These creatures are best kept in a mature marine tank with very good water flow.

Ok.
If u add some ureal, a pinch, to a tank full of aquairum water, and put it in the sun, it will turn green even faster. Give it maximum sun. u can do this with plastic tub also.
If u feel you are not getting the green water fast enough, i suggest u keep just two mussels, and put the at least the rest back. It is good that you observe the world around you, and you might be a good native fish hobbyist one day, , but so many mussels are difficult to feed vikas...

Ok.
If u add some urea, yes that agricultural fertilizer, one pinch only, to a tank full of aquairum water, and put it in the sun, it will turn green even faster. Give it maximum sun. u can cultivate green water in a plastic container also, almost any container, even old Pepsi bottles!
