    But...question here...I was planning on using some sort of anti-corrosion fluid with distilled water, can I still use this with the silver piece in there?

A very shiny (Bitspower shiny!) perfectly molded (like a little bar of soap) chunk, stamped for authenticity and weight caught my eye. A whole Troy oz. of .999 silver could be mine for $9.29! Wow, $9.29! If I can only snipe this baby 2 secs. before bidding ends. I'd just confirmed my bid when it struck me, "maybe $9.29 for 1 Troy oz. of .999 silver isn't going to land me on the cover of Fortune magazine as "the Guru of silver trading"". That's what I get for my total ignorance of the silver market. I didn't overpay but, I just thought silver was worth a little more than it is. I think I caught "gold fever". Thankfully it was only for silver ($10 worth).
    Anyway, I had actually wanted silver "wire" because I do not have anywhere to place a hunk of silver in my loop. Here, I give you, the point of my story- I found some good silver wire. Google "Atlasnova", they have 10 and 12 gauge .9999 wire. I only suggest this if you need it now. Otherwise, I would hang on for Petra's to re-up (support supportive businesses), it's much prettier all flat like that. I may hammer mine flat I don't know. I'm really not sure where I'm going to put it. My mcres only has a hole as big as the hole my flow will ultimately exit through. I'm not sure how to bend my wire so it won't block outward flow and still fit into the res through the same size hole. I like the placement in the tubing but, I have spent too much time in XS to not consider the sin of elective added restriction. Oh well, Einstein wouldn't have given up, I shall solve this problem... and maybe others too.
    Your restriction will be minimal at best if you place the wire coil in the return line just before the pump or in your dump to the res it won't even matter that it's there. Since when did you see restriction when a res is concerned? Long as there is flow over the silver your set to go.

    Can't see a problem with that.

    anti-corrosion fluid works by layering itself evenly over all the metal in the loop and preventing water from contacting the metal. What do you think that implies for the purpose of the silver? And for the temps, for that matter.

    You do not need any anti corrosion fluid unless you have aluminum in your loop. Without aluminum, the corrosion will be so minuscule that it would be decades before any visible changes to the metal will show up.

    No aluminium(not even sure if it's aluminium or steel) comes in contact with the water so you don't any anti-corrosion additives.
