Please see Chapter 3.9 ("Ions") for details here. Basically, you need to
choose ion parameters that match the water model you are using. Since you
chose TIP3P, you just need to include the following line:
loadAmberParmams frcmod.ionsjc_tip3p (the first choice in the list)

[An aside: the current Ions chapter makes things look *really* complex. But
in fact, for alkali or halide ions, you just need to choose one of the
frcmod.ionsjc_* files, depending on which water model you are using.]
[Second aside: The "correct" pdb residue and atom name for chloride is "CL",
and there are advantages to following the standard. We still support the old
Amber names, like "Cl-", but this in only for backwards compatibility. It was
a mistake to have just made up our own names.]
