Sounds more like they are fighting. Two tiger barbs is not a good idea. They are fairly aggressive, schooling fish. You should have at least six or eight to spread the aggression around and prevent them bullying each other, or the other fish in the tanks. If there is room in your aquarium, increasing the number of them will probably help.
