Is this ok to feed my GSP, or is it too hard?

Let them try! Thats the best option presuming that you are not opening them for the puffer.
Some call it a product of a mis-spent youth, I call it Rock n Roll !

Actually I was wondering if there were any type of mussells, clams, oysters ect. that I should stay away from feeding my GSP? Or are most of them fine for him?

I usually take it out of the shell and cut it up into smaller pieces. 1 mussel can last like 2 weeks or more.
