Method:

In a dutch oven or large soup pot on high heat, heat oil and butter. Add onion, fennel, garlic, shallots, basil, parsley, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper and sauté until onion is translucent.

Bring heat to medium, then, add wine, seafood stock and tomato sauce, stir and let it simmer for 30 minutes.

Add calamari, clams and mussels. Cover and cook until mussels and clams opens up, this should be about 7 mins( if they don't open up, toss it, they're no good).
Add shrimp, crab legs and scallops and simmer for another five minutes for the shrimp to cook through (do not over cook shrimp)  Add more pepper flakes if you like your food really spicy. 

Remove from stove and serve in a bowl with crisp butter toasted bruschetta bread and a glass of prosecco.   Enjoy!
