I have 4 tanks ,120.90.180,200 gallon all tanks are crystal clear except for the 200 with a eheim 2262,2260,2 aquaclear 110 and a sump system doing 1200 gallons.Just added auto water feed changing 48 gallons a day.I have 3 clown knifes,giant gourami,sailfin cat,bichir and a pleco.Tank has bare bottom.any ideas why water does not clear up.
 
water change, try using charcoal
 
Is there anyway you can shut down your changes for a couple of days? You have a boat load of filtration on that tank and it won't hurt to let things calm down a bit and settle in. I seriously doubt you have particle cloudiness. Maybe micro bubbles...not sure.

By the way, the set up sounds pretty impressive :)

Did you test your water to find out your parameters? The results of the water test will give you your answer.
