Notes

If you choose to add white wine, do so before you add the tomatoes, and leave it to cook until it all evaporates.

Any other kind of pasta would do
make sure you only cook the mussels that are completely closed. If they are open, tap them hard on the kitchen counter, if they don't close, it means they are not fresh.
If you cook mussels only, you can add half a cup of water into the pan to create the steam you need for the mussels to open up. Otherwise, there is no need to, since the other seafood will release their liquid too.
You can add as much garlic and chilli peppers as you like, when it comes to seafood, the more, the better.
If you choose to add white wine, do so before you add the tomatoes, and leave it to cook until it all evaporates.
