Get another cage.

Iguanas need a certain amount of personal space, based on their size and age.

Coyote's right.

You may also have same-sex iguanas, though even male/female couples can have territorial or personal space issues.

At 2 years old they definately need A LOT of space, each with their own adult-sized enclosure, or both in a "two in one" enclosure that will offer them 2 basking spots, feeding spots, cooling spots, hiding spots, etc.

Hehehe, you got work to do!

Separate them as soon as possible if you dont want to lose one or both.
