Hey guys I know its been a while but I finally got other tank up and running. Here's the problem I have been having with floating particles in the tank .. I know its not micro bubbles cuz I shut off my return and its still there and my 2 mp40s just blow it all around. the new tank is a 220 gal with a Proclear 400 sump which has 3 filter socks that I change every other day, also have a Reef Octopus 3000 Skimmer. Done a few water changes and still the same .. Any help will be appreciated.

Very nice. Love that rock in the center.
Guessing you have a sand sifter in there that's mixing stuff up. Had the same problem in my 220 because of a wrasse that buries itself. I mixed up the sand real well a coupla times a week to get the floating stuff floating, and cleaned the filter the next day each time. In a few weeks, maybe a month it was hardly noticeable anymore.
