Not sure on the sex, but either way, you need to separate them. Chronic stress of this nature can lead to a suppressed immune system, disease and eventually death. Tortoises rarely do well in pairs.

Looks like two males. I would also suggest separating as greeks can be ferocious to the same or separate sex.
