My 2 jewel fish just started kissing or mouth locking. Are they fighting? or something else? Thx

they're trying to prove dominance over one another. Are they both males? Usually two males fight like that to prove the stronger, but this can be avoided by separating them, or engaging them in some other activity. I've seen some people who keep cichlids add small mirrors to their tanks to make their cichlids "square off" with their reflection.
