Clean the fish, cut into 3-inch pieces and season with salt and pepper. Trim and rinse the squid and cut into rings. Scrub and debeard the mussels. Set seafood aside. Heat 1/4 cup olive oil, in a large pot. Once the oil is hot, add the onions, carrots and celery; saute for 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add the parsley, garlic, chili peppers, thyme, and bay leaves. Continue to saute foe 3 to 4 minutes or until the flavors have blended. Add the red wine and bring to a boil.
