Finches little problem

I have 6 zebra finches, 3 male and 3 females in the same cage (100 cm x 100 x 100). I have them for a month now. I add 16 nests in the cage and plenty of perches and toys with plenty room of course. I notice today that 2 males are fighting somehow. The one male just hunt the other male when it is close to him or a specific nest (i think). What is going on?

Seperate the breeding pairs into their own cages, they are not a colony breeding bird.
