I was looking for Silicone most recently as well to reseal a tank.

This actually leaves you with very few choices. Most likely, the following types don't have mold inhibitors in their "basic" version.
- Construction Silicone
- doors, trims and window

Read every single line clearly,inclusing every word in caution. Some brands for the above mentioned have mold inhibitors. The brands GE and Mono didn't for the one in my area.

Also, if you are thinking of using a lot of Silicone, consider a caulking gun vs a squeeze tube cause you get 3x more every dollar spent.

(I didn't find the Silicone 1 in a squeeze tube for the American sites.)
