Guys need your expert comments, checkout the attached photos. Took these photos yesterday - I did see both of them have injuries in their mouth. Give me some tips on creating ideal condition for egg laying i.e. temperature (its monsoon now and temp is 29 degree celsius), food, do i need to keep them apart by partitioning?

Very nice pair! How long they lip lock for? It could be a mating ritual.. Injuries are expected.. If things get too rough(ripped fins, dropping scales, lip being torn off), then it's best to separate them. If they stopped lip locking, then you shouldn't need a divider.
