So I've had 8 axolotls and the first 7 all acted typical, lazy, etc. but my latest is a little dude about 3.5" and he's SUPER active. Like, swimming back and forth and up and down regularly. He'll swim across the tank (20 gallon long) and stop for maybe 30 seconds, then swim back, and regularly goes up for air. Though I'll say he doesn't do it all the time and does take breaks and just chills in his java moss hut for good periods of time as well. His tank is 66 degrees F, the current is low, the parameters are all clean as can be. No bright lights or anything like that. His gills aren't curled and he's eating well. Everything is solid, I'm an experienced keeper and have been taking great care of him. I usually don't ask about stuff like this and I try not to be a hypochondriac but it does seem a bit peculiar.. Has anyone else had an axolotl who just seemed hyper and restless? I'm an experienced owner and can't think of anything that could be particularly wrong with him. My avatar is him.
