"It's a matter of Breeding"



I have recently introduced to relatively immature German Rams
(Microgeophagus Ramerizi) to a commmunity tank containing to two larger
Bolivian Rams (Microgeophagus Altispinosa).  

Question:  Will I get Rams with a taste for Bratwurst, Beer and Hot
Latin Salsa and Chilies or will they breed exclusively with their own
species (or genus, whatever!?!)?  Obviously I don't want them to
interbreed, so what can I do?

The aformentioned Bolivian Rams (Microgeophagus Altispinosa) seem to
have a case of worm/nematodes.  Symptoms: tiny red pin shaped "spikes"
hanging out their anus and have clamped fins.  I've tried Hexamite
unsuccessfully and a deworming medication with pellets and frozen brine
shrimps.  I actually removed several with a tiny pair of tweezers.  All
remedies aside, they still have these damn worms sticking out their
butts!!!!  WHAT CAN I DO?
