Flameout
DHA: 550
EPA: 220

Oops: I screwed up the math (crossed divided the figures):

DHA: 3.8x for FO
EPA: 1.1x for FO

But, since it's 3-6g combined for DHA and EPA:

2.1x for FO at 3.5x the cost.

Without knowing what your father is paying, I can't comment on the value of Res-Q, but it does have high concentrations, but! I though this was kind of funny:

So it's not fish oil, but it's oil from fish.

If money is no object, go for it.
Well, money is an object, thus I haven't bought it because of the cost. I believe on the site you can get them for $50/bottle, but I've found them on a few places for $35. Also, the levels of DHA/EPA aren't any different than other products.

I am trying some fish oil capsules from Costco (480 EPA/400 DHA per 2 caps, 200 count for $11.50) right now (picked them up tonight) and as long as I don't get any fish burps I will continue to take those.

I found some Now Super EPA 1200mg on dpsnutrition for a little under $12, which has more EPA/DHA, (720/480 per 2 caps) for a quantity of 120 caps. So I might try those also.
