It's really up to you. (Or rather your body) Some people do better on acacia - some people do better on citrucel - or benefiber - or one of the other SFS. I thought acacia was better so I tried to switch to it and it gave me trouble -- smelly gas, bloating... and dry, hard stools. Citrucel works better for me and comes in tablets which work great for travel.

If you do want to switch - and you are already taking fiiber - you should be able to take the same amount of whatever fiber you are switching to. (grams of fiber count - not tsp) If it becomes a problem you can try taking less -- or switch back.
