Re: A. cruzi? + Any cure for sick rams?

Thank you, guys.
I am not taking these kribs in. Will concentrate on Cruzi. 
During my absense (less than a week!) my pretty stable spawning colony 
of blue rams in other tank had completely deteriorated... tanksitter 
overfeed them... What are these 
tiny white pin-heads on the whole body of the fish? When I returned, all 
fish were affected (plecos, rams, neons), but plecos and neons are fine 
now, and rams are looking like rotting alive.. Any cure? The pair which 
was going to spawn is the worst affected, but the rest I think can be 
saved given adequate treatment.. Thank for any advice.
