Being slightly more specific might help. I personally can't really help with the actual diagnosis, however, I am certain someone with expertise in this area will be more helpful. Also, you could and most probably should post in the 'Tropical Emergencies', more responses would be had there also.

what size tank is it?
The 'kissing' is an act of aggression, so if they are doing it all of the time they obviously don't get on and need to be seperated.

Also do you have any water stats?

The red on the tail would suggest that maybe you are slightly overfeeding, but I agree that more info is required to make a full diagnosis......
