Add the Branzino (sea or stripped bass) by placing on top of the broth and very gently pushing the fish down. Allow to cook 5 minutes. Add the mussels, razor clams, langoustine, shrimp, and squid by placing on top of broth and fish gently pushing down with a large ladle and basting the shell fish with the hot broth.

Cover stockpot with a lid and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until mussels and clams are all open and langoustine shrimp and squid are cooked through. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Carefully remove to serving platter and sprinkle parsley on top.
