As long as you keep handling them regularly, they should settle down in time. Calis are known for being nippy when young; mine certainly was, but now at age two he's sweet as a kitten.

Heater rocks are not recommended, as they can burn your snake. It's best for the heating source to not be exposed, for example a heating pad or strip under one side of the tank.

I'm not sure about the plants, what kind are they?

Also, they should probably not be kept in the same tank. Chances are that they could either try to eat each other, or eventually you could end up with a pregnant female.
