redcross Rays getting aggressive

Help guys. Not been online in awhile. My rays recently started to get aggressive with each other. There are bite marks. Both are males and siblings. Anyway to reduce their aggressiveness?

Thanks. I'm more concerned that the bite marks become infected and then they die.. no plans to get any new females for now as they are quite big. If I choose to get a female, will need a bigger one otherwise she will suffer..

I bought melafix and pimafix to speed up the process. I noticed both of them are biting each other.

Motoro. They are actually siblings from different batches. Around 6" and 8".

Hey man. No unfortunately those 2 have passed away. Those 2 actually got along quite well until the male got aggressive during mating season.
