Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, and sauté until the onion is translucent and the garlic is fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the celery, bell pepper, and zucchini to the pot. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until the vegetables begin to soften.
Stir in the canned diced tomatoes along with their juice, fish stock, thyme, and bay leaf. Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it cook for 10 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
Add the salmon pieces, shrimp, clams, and mussels to the soup. Cover the pot and increase the heat to medium-high, cooking for about 8-10 minutes or until the seafood is cooked through and the clams and mussels have opened. Discard any clams or mussels that do not open.
Season the soup with salt and black pepper to taste. Remove from heat and discard the bay leaf.
Ladle the soup into bowls, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve with lemon wedges on the side for a splash of freshness.
