They look young so it's probably not anything to do with breeding. They are probably just having a bit of a tiff. Nothing to worry about. The spines in the gills are normal. They all have them.
 
I'm no expert on breeding Plecos but from your pictures, do I see one fish that is slightly more wider then the other around the head? If so, this could be a pair doing a pre nuptual dance. I'd try to confim their gender for this however. ;)
 
i have bred bristlenose cats before, you will need some kind of small cave for them, if you want to breed them also the males have the bristles females don;t have them
 
By the pics it looks like their still juvies but one of them looks more masculine than the other.
