Can geckos have arguments?

My 2 geckos, usually the best of friends, I believe to have had an argument. Is that possible? I found these marks on my tangs tail:

Sometimes I have geckos that get along fine, and give each other bit marks. I’ve noticed most of the time this is after I feed, as I think they get really excited. I’ve heard of hatchlings biting off each others tail when they get excited.

The other thing is when one of the geckos tries to walk over the other one, if they are on the back of the other gecko for a long period of time, the first gecko might just bit the other one to say watch out.

I might put them in a smaller box together, with nothing in it just so you can watch their behavior towards each other, that way you can make a proper judgment call, on rather or not to move one to a new cage.

They were in a 2 1/2 gallon tank(while cleaning) and they were fine. They show no aggression at all :main_huh:
