Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil for the pasta. Once boiling, cook the pasta according to the package instructions until it is "al dente." While the pasta is cooking, add the tomatoes and chili flakes to the seafood pot and cook over medium high heat, stirring often until the tomatoes begin to break down, 5 to 6 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, and stir in the parsley. Return the clams and mussels to the pot and keep warm.
