The link below will take you to an article written by Dr. Elaine Ingham who developed hte methods to make compost tea.
If you get the dried fish fertilizer, not the liquid, you can mix Alfalfa meal and fish fertilizer, although I'm not sure why one would do that since that might provide too much Nitrogen to the plants.
The latest information I've seen from OMRI is that Alaska Fish Fertilizer is still listed as approved.

Here is a link that might be useful: making Compost Tea
