Reduce heat and gradually bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally to avoid anything sticking to the pot. Simmer for 15 minutes or until potatoes are just about finished.
Add haddock, salmon, mussels (raw in shell) and cream into the pot and stir; cook for about 10 minutes or until fish is cooked and mussels are open. Season with chives and salt to taste. Serve hot immediately.
