Can anyone recommend a notebook in which I can use fountain pens without the ink showing through the pages?

I'm studying and really find it distracting when Im taking notes and I can see my notes on the other side of the page!

I'm tempted to only write on one side of the page, but that seems like a huge waste of paper!

I think Moleskine Notebooks are fountain pen ink safe (I have used mine without a problem), and Bureau Direct comment on most of their notebooks as to whether or not they are good for fountain pen users. I agree - it is very irritating when ink bleeds through and a huge waste to use only one side of the paper.

I usually avoid Moleskine because they're expensive and I can get similar for cheaper.... obviously the quality of paper must be the reason for the difference (I'm suck a cheapskate!). I'll Gove them a go - thank you!
