Depends on the fish. For example, one capsule of salmon oil (one gram = 1000 mg) represents the fatty acids from about 40 grams of raw pink salmon (based on the USDA database).

If you want to compare different seafoods, go to:
http://www.cs.princeton.edu/~ah/food/data/fishshellfish.lipids2
http://www.cs.princeton.edu/~ah/food/data/fishshellfish.lipids3

EPA is listed as 20:5, and DHA is 22:6.
