Hey guys! So I know this isn't the most important thing ever, but do you know how some axolotls like to float around? Well my axolotl was never the type to do that. She's usually lazy and perches on the tank decorations. Recently, she's been active and picked up the floating thing. Maybe it's a hobby? :D

Naturally I wondered if maybe she was bloated or something, but the tell-tale signs aren't there. Normal gills, normal tail, not floating from the behind but rather horizontally- parallel to the tank bottom. Meters and tests run fine. The only thing I can think of is that a while ago I expanded the tank. Maybe she is just in an adventurous kind of mood because of the new real estate? But when I first got her, she got used to her surroundings very quickly and went back to lounging around. Axolotls are truly hard to read... :/

What do you guys think?
