Sounds like it could be adenovirus. There is a specific test to do to test for this virus, it won't show up on standard blood work or fecals. A google search on adenovirus will bring up more info on this virus.

Once diagnosed, you pretty much have to put down the entire collection, babies, adults and eggs, to be sure to be rid of it completely. Unfortunately there is no cure for it.
