I’m going through the SLAM process and it worked fine until I ran into a cloudy blue pool. I have check my calcium and it’s calling for 50 lbs of calcium chloride. That just seems like a lot to me. My pool is a 15x30 and 4 foot deep, 13500 gals. Is this the right amount of cal. Chloride?
Calcium hardness is too low.

Welcome to the forum!
What type of pool is this? From your description, it is an above ground pool which typically has a vinyl liner. That type of pool does not need calcium added to the water. What is showing you as needing calcium?
I suggest you read ABC's of Pool Water Chemistry.

There is no need to add any calcium.
