From what I found ammonia or sulfuric would be the "water" or the solvent for silicon based life since silicon obviously doesn't dissolve in water.

Yeah i heard of ammonia too, its MP and BP are close to that of water. I did always wondered would you get drunk on SH3-SH2-OH tho haha.
H2S has weaker bonds and is gas at room temp. Phosphor can form 5 bonds so would be another candidate but if i remember well there is something fishy about the 5th bond.
Have you ever heard of crackpot theory that there may be life (!) inside of a star?!? Funny thing is apparently hawking liked that idea if i recall well.

I'm not familiar with that compound, sh3-sh2-oh guessing its a alcohol but doesn't mean ya can just go chug it;) haha I definitely wouldn't wanna drink isopropyl or methanol. And no I haven't heard of that theory, i'll have to look it up!
