Species of mercury, huh?
(and I didn't even think it was alive)
I've been reading for a while now that the form of mercury in fish may not be as bad as previously thought.
Some suggestion about sulphur perhaps making it not as biologically available.
I thought I saw a study on it, but I can't find it now.
here's a link ..not a study though(hoope it stays up)
