I formerly worked for a company where our primary line of business was producing Omega-3s from algae (nannochloropsis). Our company didn't work out (for unrelated reasons), but the economics and realities regarding the global fish stock ensure that a non-insignificant portion of Omega-3s/7s will come from algae in the not-too-distant future!
For those who do care though, definitely examine the origin of your algae products. Most of the spirulina / haematococcus (for astaxanthin) / nannochloropsis by volume is grown in rather disgusting conditions in China and India. The US, Japan, and European products are much cleaner but are often GMO if that kind of thing matters to you.
