Today I added a 2nd blue acara to my tank, I’m not sure on the sexes of either of them, but since they’ve been added they constantly follow each other round the tank and sit in caves together, I had noticed the larger acara swam in front of the smaller and started to twitch, is this a bad sign I should be aware of?

Sounds like normal behavior to me, you might have a male and a female.
I was told the larger one in the cave is a male but they didn’t say anything about the smaller one.
These guys are hard to sex, best way is from their actions. And so far sounds like you got a male and female. Just keep an eye for a couple days to make sure things don't go bad.
Adding a female or male doesn't necessarily mean they will bond and pair some get lucky though.
