Can anyone tell me if this pacing behavior is normal? I attached a video. She’s been doing this for about an hour. She just moved into her fully cycled tank about 2 days ago. Parameters are Ammonia: 0 Nitrite: 0 Nitrate:10ppm Ph: 6.8. The other axolotl in the tank is perfectly fine. Neither have curled gills. Thank in advance!

There doesn't seem to be any hides in the tank for her to get away from light so that might be why she's pacing; she's looking for a way to find some shelter. I would highly recommend adding some form of hide in that tank for her. That tank also looks rather small for how big she is. How many gallons is your tank? I always recommend at least a 20-gallon tank for a fully grown axolotl.
There are multiple hides in the tank. This is just the corner of the tank
She does it for a few hours every couple days
