Upgraded from 10 Gal to 20 Gal... Axie seems stressed

Hey everyone I just bought a new 20 Gallon Long tank for my axie and he seemed to be getting well acquainted to his new home. After a few hours, I walked into my room and turned on the light and noticed him floating vertically towards the top near the filter. I walked up to the tank thinking there was something horribly wrong and he instantly swam really fast into his hide. Now he's just moving around the tank not floating anymore but I'll notice every few minutes his tail will curl up a bit. Could this just be stress from being moved into a new tank?

They are generally stressed when moved. Just give him some time to calm down.

Thanks! I was figuring that he was stressed from the move. I just wanted to see what anyone else thought
