Help!

I'm not sure if this is normal but my two largest angels constintly grap hold of eachothers mouths and shake violently.. i thought it was cute at first until the started to shake really hard, and i noticed some damage to there mouths- also the smaller of the two, who is in better shape concerning fins is a real bad nipper, but only picks on my largest angel. i'm wondering if this is some kind of pre-spawning behavior (the mouth-lock) for the female to challenge the male or just a fight for territory.

help me out here thanks

This is why it's best not to double post. I replied in the other thread you started about this.
