> I never knew about vegetarian omega 3's. That sounds pretty cool.

See my prior post. They are not interchangeable with e.g. fish oil.

> I did, however, read a post on some forum about a guy who had a similar problem with omega 3s. What he did was he had to take his omega 3s simultaneously with a LOT of omega 6 - and this seemed to cure his omega 3 intolerance.

That defeats the purpose of taking the fish oil. All he did was block the utilization of the fish oil, unless the omega-6 he was using was gamma-linoleic acid (borage, black currant, evening primrose).

> I once heard of algae oil... has anyone ever had experience with that?

I've never used it. It's expensive. The dominant brand for many years has been Neuromins, but if I recall correctly, a somewhat cheaper competitor entered the marketplace a couple of years ago. That should be bringing prices down to a more reasonable level.

I would not recommend algal oil for anyone other than strict vegetarians, as it contains no EPA.
