Should I Separate My Robos?

Hello all,

I picked up two robo dwarf hamsters about two weeks ago and they've been super great pals ever since, until this morning? I know it is common for robos to have to be split up, but I'm wondering if you all agree.

They've slept together, run in their wheels together, and cuddle together too, all without actual fighting until this morning. They live in a CritterTrail Two Level habitat with a lot of extensions. The past few days I did notice that one of them had started to use a separate wheel from the other one every so often, but they still did things together. This morning, I moved them to their playpen that has a hamster wheel and a lot of other toys. I proceeded to give them lots of treats and one of them, Hamtaro, stored a whole bunch, while the other, Bijou, took one or two to eat and wasn't interested in any more. Then, when they went to go run on the hamster wheel, I noticed that the one who stored a lot of treats was attacked by my other robo! They fought a bit, and Bijou ended up on her back making squeaking sounds. From this point on, they fought 4-5 more times and only once did Hamtaro chase Bijou around the playpen.

I decided to move them into their cage and they both went into the hamster wheel together and fought some more. It's been an hour or so and I hear a squeak every so often. Is it time to separate them?
