6 Year Old Diagnosed with ADHD

My 6 year old has been diagnosed with ADHD. I've been reading studies about children taking Omega-3 fish oil and improving as much as with Ritalin. Has anyone tried fish oil? Did it work? How long did it take until you saw improvement? Does anyone have opinions about the different types of medication for ADHD? I'd rather not give my child a stimulant, but I'd like to know about the pros and cons of the different stimulants if we do decide to use one. Thanks!
