I'll be getting my first ferrets at the end of the summer, and I was planning out a raw food schedule ahead of time. It occurred to me that I haven't seen anything suggesting fish or shellfish (sans shells and bones) on the menu.
I was just curious if fish and - I dunno - lobster or something (for the wealthy ferrets lol) is ferret safe.

Why not if it's raw and not cooked. The salt load might be a bit high, so I would only use it as a treat or a once in awhile type meal. I offered my guys shrimp one time....they didn't like it...just as well...left more for me ;D

A lot of the fish, especially shellfish are very high in taurine.

Don't give it too often because some fish have a lot of mercury, but no harm in occasionally.
