Well try running to the pet store and buy a tank divider to separate them but they are probably fighting over dominance however domeone will get hurt so go ahead and get the divider

Answer 2

you can seporate them if you want what they are doing is normal they are establishing the domance of the tank and the pecking order  

Answer 3

The thing that anyone really would like to know here, that is at least intelligent, is what is the tank size?  A solo Oscar should be in no less then a 55, and for a pair, a 90.  

Many times with younger Oscars, fish keepers are tempted to keep them in a tank far too small for them.  This causes a couple things to occur.  One is you'll have a much tougher time coping with your nitrogen compounds, and two, with a pair in a tank too small, they'll see each other far too often and compete for food.  Oscars are monomorphic so you cannot visually s*x them and thus determine if this is a male/female mating ritual or a pair of males fighting.

Before I'd really suggest anything, I'd like to know the tank size.  Seperating them is likely to only delay dealing with the real issue.
