Default What's your favourite coolant?

So I'm thinking of getting a liter of FluidXP+ again, SVC sells the HP variety for arround $15. I have stayed away from the ridiculously expensive NANO or the Extreme.
I have been using FluidXp+ for years after a few bad choices (something with two tees amongst others).
At $15 its more than worth its money.

I do have 2nd thoughts about it now, since its electrical conductivity is not so non-conductive.

Which got me wondering what everyone else was using in their loop.
All comments are welcome.

I been using G11 for a few months and I don't like it. I mixed it with distilled water + 2 drops of PT nuke but the blue color fades after a few weeks. My water then turns brownish after a while and there's a lot of stuff growing in my loop. I just cleaned everything today again with vinegar so right now its clean.

Yeah, I could have sworn some of the stuff growing in my loop had flippers when I used a Tt once.
