Odd to be doing that during day, what color is it, and what lights?

Nice, so I'd guess those lights are pretty strong especially high up in column, so maybe reason why.

One of the residents, my male Spotcinctus. I've owned many clowns over the years and I have to admit, these are probably my favorites. They don't try to bite me when I'm in the tank.

Yeah those are pretty hot off the bulb, so intensity higher up in column is probably more than what the T5's did.

What size tank is it in? I have a mag that is 10 inches across in a 40 gal brdr. Looking to get him in a bigger tank.

I went ahead and dialed them back to 75%, it'll be interesting to see if it stops altogether or continues. The past couple of days I haven't seen it ball up, so it may be the light intensity as suggested. I don't think it balling up during the day is a sign of stress, as it's quite common to see them like that in the ocean, so I'm not sure if this is a step forward or backward to be honest lol.
48x24 footprint @dieselkeeper, it's a 80g tank from deep blue professionals.

I see balling up as a sign it wants to protect itself from something; just a guess.

"BonsaiNut: To answer your original question, this is quite common in the wild - particularly at sunset but sometimes even in the middle of the day. I think it has to do with light intensity - and the changing from light to dark. I have seen it in aquariums but only really brightly lit ones." And that explains that, it seems like light intensity may have everything to do with it.
