I'm planning my first ever water cooled build:

lian li 011d XL
EKWB front panel distro plate
Slim 360 rads top and bottom
GPU waterblock

I have a couple of questions:
What is the best vertical GPU mount to allow possible clearance to have my bottom rad fittings at the back of the case? I know its gonna be super tight.

Are there any must have fittings that will assist in keeping the runs straight, baring in mind its my first time but i'd like as close to perfect as possible? Im pretty confident i can manage 90 and double 45 degree bends but would like to avouid anything too complex.

I am looking for a yellow preferably pastel coolant that i can leave in for ~12 months at a time. If this isnt possible could someone reccomend a nice yellow translucet coolant?

Where will be the best place to incorporate a drain valve as i understand its gonna be difficult due to a rad on the bottom of the case?

Thanks in advance
