The fight in that video is somewhere between playing and fighting. You'll know when they really fight because they just grab hold of each other and roll around and jab with their claws and teeth in little rapid twitches
A play-fight usually seems much slower and calmer than a real fight and never usually lasts longer than four seconds. A real fight will often go on til one of them is dead, and of course you see a lot of blood. Not pretty.
If they are 2 males, they may be fighting for dominance in the substrate they are in,( looks like they were taking a dust bath). Or if 2 females, the same thing. If a male and a female, he may be wanting to start a family and she doesn't!! Just watch them and be sure they don't hurt each other.
as long as there is no noise being made and you never see blood it is just them messing around nothing to be afraid of!!
They're just frisky.. lucky little gerbils
