You shouldn't use any acid when cleaning your toilet. It can kill the bacteria that the system needs to break down waste.

Sink drains fine and the toilet flushes but the bathtub fills?
I had this happen to me then eventually my toilet started overflowing the contents of my septic tank. SUCH FUN TO CLEAN! If you on a septic tank and this is happening you may need to have it pumped or have your drain line checked. what happened to me was my drain line was pinched and couldn't disperse my gray water, so my septic filled way too fast and eventually burped. I now use RidX once a month and it keeps the gurgles at bay.If you are not on a septic system, CALL A PLUMBER ASAP, it could be a back up but having the sewer come back in on you would likely be way worse!the main reason the tub/toilet are effected together is they are the last things on the drain line.
How do you clean out a septic system drain field?
You don't, you replace it. Dig up the old, lay new pipe and gravel and cover. You can also try the natural bacterial cleaners, such as the all-natural advanced formula Septic-Helper 2000. Some treatments have the natural bacteria that work outside of your septic system and in your drain lines and drain field.
Can a basement floor drain be tapped into to run the drain from a nearby newly installed basement toilet into it?
If you just plan on putting the toilet on top of the floor drain the answer is no. The floor drain if it leads to a septic system or city sewer would have a trap in the line which will not work with a toilet. Depending on the size of the pipe 3" minimum you could cut the floor and tie a toilet into the line. It would also have to be properly vented. I would consult a plumber on the job. Its also possible that the floor drain just goes to a dry well which could not be used. Even if it could not be used there are other ways to install a toilet below the septic or sewer line.
