My axol, Banana is very energetic and enjoys swimming. She is currently in a 20 long but I have been thinking about moving her to a 29 gallon because it's got similar floor space and I can put in multiple raised areas for her to swim and rest in. She currently swims laps nightly around the tank. Anyone else tried this for a spaz?
 
I have my very active juvie in a 29 gal and he uses every inch of the space the only downside is tank maintenance is a bit more of a hassle as my whole arm gets wet reaching to the bottom! Make sure to test your water in case his restlessness is due to a problem there but some axi are just hyper it seems :)
 
We test water regularly and it regularly comes up within normal parameters. In fact we just finished her weekly water change. She's just my little spazzy Banana.

    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
