Incrementing fish oil pills

What is a good amount of fish oils to take at a time. Right now I want 10 grams per day. I'm thinking about splitting it up 5 pills in the morning, 5 at night. Should I split this up even more, like 2 or 4 servings a day?

Actually that is 10 grams of actual fish oil. 10 grams SHOULD yield 3 grams of combined epa/dha.

TO the threadstarter I would go 3/3/4 or something like that with your solid meals.

so you should go by how many grams of fish oil, not epa/dha, you're getting?
