The cheap tuna (little fish) is pretty safe. The nice big fillets from older fish have more mercury than you like

I generally eat salmon twice a week and 1 or 2 cans of tuna.

I'm not sure about the omegas but pickerel/walleye can be had forr 5-7$ a pound here so it's right up there with chicken breasts for me.

Yeah, thats true. I think I remember reading that the cheap tuna is actually lower in mercury than the Albacore. Canned Salmon is all farmed fish so mercury probably isn't an issue with that (although they are pumped full of a lot of chemicals, but so is chicken).
