NO, for two reasons. I eat mostly salmon and sardines, and some small mackerel only. If you look up fish low in mercury there are a ton of links.
But secondly, they found that the nutrients, mainly selenium, in the fish actually help the body remove mercury through the thioredoxin system, so the worry might be exaggerated. I do not eat fish everyday as well, I eat shellfish on the off days and I fast. Oysters are really high in selenium.
