O2 information needed

ok - I will try to be short winded - not an easy task for me......
 
we bought the welders oxygen
 
I printed the O2 supplemental guide to help me understand O2, which I know nothing about.  
 
foolishly tried to talk to a medical supply house only they wouldn't talk without a prescription (didn't mention to them we were using welders O2)
 
went to the internet to find the mask, regulator, and bubbler.
 
that is where the problem arose further......
 
mask - easy - buy a clustermasx - problem solved
 
regulator - hah - so many to choose from and will it even fit the O2 tank we got from the welders shop??  And all the talk in the guide I am reading confused me as to what I need - demand flow or constant flow.  
 
Question 1 - I need constant flow with the clustermasx, right?  
 
Question 2 - other than being up to 15 lpm, is there anything else specific that we should be looking for?
 
Question 3 - is anyone else using welders oxygen?  He bought a Q size tank - does that make sense?  What do we need?
 
Bubbler - ok - I could only find one that had an emergency blow off at 6 lpm, that won't do.  
 
 
Question - where do you find one that goes up to 15 lpm???
 
 
basically I just need to figure out the regulator and then find a bubbler and we can stop risking explosion (cause he will stop huffing it)
 
thanks!!!!
Erika
(and to think - this was the short winded version - sorry guys!!)
