They like to annoy each other. Generally that is why they're best in schools of at least four. It spreads the aggression.

As long as you don't see serious fighting - like where fins are noticeably ragged and stress is apparent, I wouldn't worry. Tetras usually just like to play their little games of dominance.

You should probably get more to spread out their "playful" actvity. How big is your tank? Tetras are better in groups, as they are a schooling fish.
