Does anyone know what the difference is between Quikclot Sport and Quikclot First Response? They both seem to use Zeolite to promote clotting.

The only difference is the the packaging. Both are 25g sponges w/ same ingredients.

We covered this in EMT training recently, and the First Response has more of the active hemostatic agent.For what it's worth, all of our local squads carry QuickClot Combat Gauze.

Yes, it is a powder and there is also a trauma dressing with it. It is for major wounds. I don't want to open it since it is vacuum packed and dry. You can buy QuikClot powder in different forms on Amazon. I have them for nosebleeds and fir smaller cuts. I am on blood thinners so my blood does not clot as fast. I thought this would be perfect for those occasions.

Both are great, however, the black filters will filter out a little more contaminants than the ceramic. I currently have the ceramic supersterasyl and think they are great. I will be purchasing the black filters very soon, and storing the ceramic in case of emergency. If you have the money, may I suggest buying four black filters. If money is an issue (as it was when I first bought the Berkey) stay with the ceramic (4). You will not be disappointed. Here is a great review comparing the two... http://www.911water.com/Compare-Black-Berkey-and-Super-Sterasyl-Filter-s/69.htm

OxiClean compares to the Clorox 2. You add it to detergent. I like the oxi better than the clorox.

We've been using our pump for over 6 months without a problem. My understanding is any current pump is expected to be exposed to E-10 and is built accordingly. Our experience is that E-10 still will leach rubber quicker that recreational (non-ethanol fuel) will but what choice do we have? Hope this helps. Kim

The quick filter removes very small particulates through a fine mesh. Though the attachment has cages to put carbon or zeolite, the mesh is so small is tends to clog very quickly. Thus, the quick filter really only provides mechanical filtration, while the Powerfilter will provide all three types of filtration but will be less adequate at removing fine particles and cloudy water. The two running at the same time is good at providing water movement, oxygenation and filtration. But the Quickfilter will most likely fill and clog the mesh very quickly, so you could just run the Quickfilter without the mesh most of the time and will benefit from using the mesh filter after gravel vacuuming or general maintenance to clear the water. It is a very effective water polisher but not really useful other than movement and polishing. I would definitely recommend using another filter as a primary and the quick filter as a secondary filter.

Hi, Terri. I have MSK and pass stones every single day without change. I was having a lot of pain in my right kidney which I hadn't had for a very long time and that's when I began to look for a product like this. I'd had 3 surgeries already and was trying to avoid yet another. My left has always been the worst. I noticed the pain gone within 2 DAYS! I began to pass some gravel almost right away BUT I WAS ALSO TAKING the MAX 15 tabs per day. I am now using the other product I reviewed with this one for stones and found that it made a HUGE difference as far as getting the job done faster. I hope this helps.

Sorry, but I've never tried Cystex so I can't make a comparison. However, before trying AZO, I checked with the local pharmacist for an opinion of that product. You could always try doing that to see which one he or she favors as being more effective.

The first part of my response is like Hugo's. The 2nd part of my response is that it didn't work for my clogged line. It had very poor results from the stream of water to the size of the stream. It was a very poor product that sits in my truck box unused and never will be.

the ChiSoft is easy to use. You control how much air to pump in. I found it best to use incrementally.

Yes, it is NUK brand. I belive it's slow flow. I've never been able to find the NUK disposables in anything other than slow flow, so I don't really have anything to compare it to.

I would use the DuPont gel Advion instead. They tend to go for this bait more but since I already had the maxforce I used it in combination. Worth a shot. Some ants like the carbs some like the proteins

No more quickly than any other brand of fluid, at least to my experience. Actually, Zippo and Ronson's seem to be two of the better choices available. Cheaper brands, such as Neon, seem to get "used up" much more quickly.

It does come with quick clots, two if I remember correctly. There's also 1 tournakit, which I replaced with a better one.

Yes, I agree with that 100%, Swheat Scoop only clumps what is needed to do the job. With clay litter it seems to clump more of the material once it gets wet plus it's heavy. I've also noticed that the litter box odor is a lot less with Swheat Scoop. Great product for my fur-kids and for me.

The difference is the mineral content. But all flourite can absorb nutrients from the water. So if you use liquid fertilizer in your tank the difference just ends up being the color. This is good substrate.

I have not used the Quik Wax so I don't know. This seems to be a cleaner and I use it with the Meguiar clay to get a smooth finish. Then I wax the car with a turtle wax paste type wax
