Next day, with sharp knife, cut the frozen lobster tails (shell and all) in half crosswise. Wipe cod and halibut with damp paper towels. Cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces or leave whole. Rinse sea scallops in running cold water; drain. Bring tomato mixture to boil. Add frozen lobster. Simmer, covered, 4 minutes. Add cod and halibut pieces; simmer covered 10 minutes. Add sea scallops over low heat, 5 minutes. Spoon bouillabaisse over garlic toast. You can substitute for different varieties of fish, if desired.
