Hey guys,

About 7 months ago now I purchased 2 golden tail hatchies (sex unknown), one a little bit older than the other. I house both these geckos together ever since I first got them at a few weeks old and both are growing up nice and healthy. However lately I have noticed when I walk in to check up on of a night time, they will often look at each other and then start to run at each other and begin wrestling, as I like to call it. I've never seen it as any act of aggression although it is somewhat concerning that they might hurt one other eventually. Tonight when I was feeding them crickets, the younger one grabbed onto the tip of the older one's tail and held for a few seconds until it bit a small tip off of the older one's tail... Now I am a little concerned but I thought I might come online and see what you guys think. Is it time to seperate the two into their own tanks or should I not worry so much?

Cheers James,
 
Sounds like you may have two males, If they are injuring one another then separating is your only option.
If you post pics of the underside of them I can sex them for you
