I'm trying to visualize that. It sounds to me like something is irritating them.

ohhhh "Shaking" i thought you meant sacking like what Linebackers do to QBs...
Depending on what type of shaking, it could be something bothering them or males will do it as a mateing display as well.

Do they look and act normal otherwise (eat, good color, nice fins)? Are they dark or skittish? Also, do you notice this behavior at certain times or is it random? Fish will shake at one another when they are spawning/flirting or when they're squabbling over dominance and territory.

Shaking could also be a sign that there's a parasite or something irritating them... it could be something with the water or some actual pest like flukes. Do they ever rub up against anything in the tank or "flash" off of things?
