Won't swim?

I've had an axolotl for around Three months, and around two months ago I moved it into a bigger tank. In the old tank it used to swim around all the time, but in the new tank it hasn't since I put it in there. The only reason I can think of is that the old tank didn't have a pump, and the new one does. Maybe its too powerful? I asked the guy were I brought it from and he said to lay it on the bottom of the tank shooting up, but that has'nt done anything.
I can provide pics if you want.

I also brought two more axolotls a week ago and they seem fine together, no eating of each other, yet...

    with axolotls would I basically have to keep buying and buying new axolotls to prevent inbred breeding which costs a lot of money??

    Not necessarily but if you’re wanting to continue to grow your breeding capacity then yes. Breeding axolotls isn’t a cheap hobby nor is it a get rich quick scheme. It costs a lot of money and time and deditcation

    Would Chinese fire belly newts be more or less inclined towards an aquatic eft set up versus Japanese . I'm raising them and have abandoned the terrarium at about 5 months old and switched to the aquatic setups you describe. I'm wondering if I could do this as soon as they morph?
