New axxie owner looking for advice on set up 84FE0D38-8991-4362-9F7C-6FC80C6009D1.jpg
 
I would add a second hide in that space that is open.
Other than that looks good. Add a thermometer to the tank if you haven't already and I just can't see it.

Are all those plants live? I had trouble keeping a plant similar to the one on the far right alive in my tank. It died within a week and I removed it so it wouldn't foul the water. The one on the far left I have in my tank and seems to be growing well.
Just keep an eye on them and remove dead plants. Perhaps add a few fake plants in if you notice some live ones dying on you, just to keep the amount of cover steady. Perhaps a broad leafed fake plant they can rest on or hide under?
 
Check that grey decoration for any sharp bits. The ones that look like that here are really sharp all over so no good for soft axie skin.
What is the volume of the tank?

    Hey everyone, just want a little advice. Its 55 - 60 celcius in my Salamanders tank. Hes curled up and tyring ti bury himself, Im assuming hes too cold. I was wondering if he would benefit from a heated rock cave (since he LOVES his cave) that I could set on low? I NEVER see him curled up and trying to bury himself unless his tank sits at 63 degrees celcius or lower. So I am assuming hes a little uncomfortable.

    He also seems a little sluggish, again, assuming hes cold. Having heating trouble with the new house right now. What do we think? Was thinking of grabbing this for him since its got very low, medium, and higher medium heat settings that exude heat downward inside the rock cave but ALSO exudes it UPWARDS outside of the rock cave, effectively keeping the tank itself a little warm. Seems like it miiiight be a little small for him though, my guy is about 7 inches from tip of his nose tothe tip of his tail. What do we think? https://www.amazon.com/Reptile-Simulation-Adjustable-Temperature-Tortoise/dp/B0CH1DPGBC
