If you have a salt water system, you may safely use and 'pool shock' as long as it is either sodium based or is potassium peroxymonopersulfate based. Typical liquid pool shock, or even granular shock for a salt system, is compariable to household bleach. Main difference is bleach may contain a trace of phosphates, but nothing that will harm the system. I see no problem using bleach. Just dont enter the water until the chlorine reading has dropped to or below 4ppm. Hope this helps! Pool management and chem analysis experience of 6 years.

Is there a shock it just for the salt water or you use reg. shock it you buy at walmart

Stabelizing shock is what is usually recommeded for saltwater pools because it is less likely to bleach the vinyl liner and reduce its lifespan. Calsium Chloride is a shock that is not stabelizing. If you are careful you can use it but you should not let any of it land on the pool bottom. With good pump flow you can pour some into the skimmer basket so it is disolved before returning to the pool. I hope this helps.

The water is getting cloudy and the sides of the pool are slimy

If your pool water is clowdy and slimy then it is about to turn green. What you need to do first is shock the pool to recommended dose to start killing the algae.
The most common error users make in managing a salt water pool besides not having salt in the pool has no stabilizer in it. This is a chemical that has an affinity for chlorine ions and if it is not there the chlorine can be disipated in a few hours when the sun hits it. Another name for it is Cyanuric Acid. It can be purchased in granular form at many pool supply stores or in a liquid form at Leslies. In order to get your pool blue you need to have the chemistry checked at a pool store or with a test kit (either liquid or strips). Don't buy everything a pool supply tells you to buy but start out with vinyl safe shock, stabilizer and salt. The pool store should be able to help you determine the dose. The following is what I would do:
1. Make sure salt is at the recommended concentration.
2. Shock the pool to recommended dose to start killing the algae.
3. Place the recomended dose of stabilizer in the pool.
4. Make sure pump and filter are working properly.
5. Check the pool chemistry on a daily basis until it is ready for swimming.
6. Check the chemistry on a weekly basis and clean the pool and equipment according to the pool instructions.

The water in the electrolytic cell is green? Do I need to clean it?

I assume from your comment about having green water in you electrolytic cell that maybe you don't have it connected to a pool yet or the pool water is green also. Anyway, if you are just starting your system and there is green water in the electrolyic cell then pore it out and when you place it into operation the pool water will clean it out. If the electrolyic cell is working the most overlooked cause for green water besides not having salt in the pool is it has no stabilizer in it. This is a chemical that has an affinity for chlorine ions and if it is not there the chlorine can be disipated in a few hours when the sun hits it. Another name for it is Cyanuric Acid.

The following is what I would do:
1. Make sure salt is at the recommended concentration.
2. Shock the pool to recommended dose to start killing the algae.
3. Place the recomended dose of stabilizer in the pool.
4. Make sure pump and filter are working properly.

5. Check the pool chemistry on a daily basis until it is ready for swimming (or for at least 1 week).
6. Check the chemistry on a weekly basis and clean the pool and equipment according to the pool instructions.

I just got a intex pool and it was given to me so I have no instructions. What all chemicals do I need to put in it and does the pump need to run while filling it up?

don't run the pump until the pool is full. You should buy some test strips and test the water . The strips will tell you what your low on. You will need chlorine for sure and probably some shock
