Cleaning Chemicals

I am a new septic system and user are passed by? S search for the answer, but I get so many conflicting answers that I do not know what is right. Rid-X is good, or should I let the natural reservoir of the bacteria do its thing? I read that I should not use laundry detergent powder. Is this correct? What type of bathroom and kitchen cleaning products I can use. I've always been a big fan of Bleach, but I read this is bad for the system. Is this correct? I also use CLR to clean. Good or bad? What are the best cleaning chemicals to use? How about a shower and soap for washing dishes? It's too many questions in a (sorry), but just try to keep my system safe and working properly. A website link would be nice too. Thank you!

This is just for maintenance drain-
Pour half of baking soda down the drain C. and follow with 3 C. boiling water. Let bubble for a few minutes then rinse with hot tap water.
