I would not suggest moving her to a BIGGER tank until this behavior has stopped. Maybe you should add more fake plants or tighter hides to make her feel safer. She obviously has some problem with her environment.
uh oh... ok i added a buncha plants and put dark paper on all sides of the tank. hope she feels secure enough..
Re: Climbing on side of tank?
Mine cruised up and down the tub trying to find an escape for a solid week after we got him. He has finally calmed down, and will often come out at night and drape himself over several of his hides, but the cruising has more or less stopped.
I think they try and map out the tub at first (and occasionally when you change things up) to figure out where the hiding spots are, where potential escape spots are, etc. I wouldn't worry about it, as long as the temps are right and she is eating (and showing no other signs of stress).
