In a large, deep skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the garlic and shallots and sauté until soft, about 3 minutes. Add the tomatoes, basil, and oregano and simmer for 5 minutes. Add the salmon and cook until the fish begins to look opaque. Add the scallops and cook for 2 minutes. Add the shrimp and cook, stirring, until pink, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

Meanwhile, in a large pot, bring at least 4 quarts of water to a rolling boil. Add 1 tablespoon salt. Add the pasta, stir to separate, and cook until al dente. Drain.

Transfer the pasta to a large warm serving bowl.
