Are these ingredients safe? (Omegakrill5x: fish oil capsules)

Hi, I've been looking into Omega 3 fatty acids tonight, trying to work out how to get some without consuming loads of toxins.. as most fish-oil products on the market are very bad.
So i've found one, which looked promising, but then i saw the inactive ingredient list, and was not so happy.
Can someone tell me if this sounds bad? my concerns are in bold: Gelatin, glycerine, sorbitol, purified water, capsule color (annatto and titanium dioxide), VESIsorb® Absorption Enhancement Matrix (MCT oil, nonionic surfactant, polyglycerol acid esters), and natural orange citrus oil.
^i still don't know what annatto, MCT or polyglycerol are... I have health anxiety and OCD issues, which makes this all a big headache. I've also got IBS which is why i'm cautious over the inclusion of sorbitol, plus the only place i've seen an ionic surfacant before is in my persil laudery detergent 
much appreciated if someone could weigh in on whether this sounds safe, https://www.biotrust.com/Shop.asp?p=OK5X B

I'm not sure on the safety of those chemicals you bolded (there is nothing wrong with gelatin though...), but if you don't like fish products, why not take flax seed oil or just eat some walnuts?

Did you know you can buy fish oil by the bottle and just take bottle caps of it?
It tastes like fish, OK, and not in the nicest way, but then you got zero additives.
Why not simple softgels?
why not eat fatty fish twice a week instead?

they will not kill you unless you choke on them, they also wont cause cancer or hair loss but if you have fish allergies you're safer not to take them

Spray-dried Schizochytrium sp microalgae is the source, which itself is 18% DHA by weight.
However I've read to avoid the 'Martek' company's omegas, as they are extracted with hexane.
-------------------- Favorite entheogen experiences in descending order: 1)Combo of oral DMT + smoked Bufotenine 2)Amanita (urine drank twice) 3)Mushrooms > Achuma 16"+cid(still need higher dose Achuma)> Cid (still need high dose) 4)Morning Glory-HBWR (+cumin, cinnamon aldehyde adducts) > Methyl chavicol (need more activators) 5)Salvia (need to try quid)
All readable matter in the above post is ficticious... any similarities to real life are purely coincidental. Blessing.

EPA has health effects too along with the DHA.
Algal oil usually is much more expensive per mg of DHA consumed than fish oil.
