Good choice. I may take in 80g of whey, but I also get 120g from wholefoods.

Like most nutrients/food, the fatty acids in fish oil will serve your body more efficiently if they are distributed evenly thoughout the day, rather than in one large dose (not that you are taking a large dose of the fish oil). In other words, a super-powered multi-vitamin will get largely lost in urine. But if you take smaller doses throughout the day (or maybe just twice a day) your body can use what you give it.. and then you refuel.
It looks like you could probably take in more fish oil. 1000mg is most commonly 180/120mg of EPA/DHA (the stuff you want). There have been arguments about how much is enough or too much... but you would do well to take at least 2-3 more each day.
You could probably apply the "split it up" idea to the Vit C. 1000mg is probably more than your body can use at once (I'm thinking so is my 500mg), so either 250mgs or 500mgs. Not a huge deal either way if your eating is good though.
