I would highly recommend skipping TTM for now and getting them into an appropriate QT that has some live rock and sand. Although they clearly can carry external parasites, the same things that protect them while sleeping in the sand also protect them from things like ich. Much more likely they have internal parasites, thus the importance of getting them eating. I have also found that they usually get interested in frozen after a few days. Those few that don't eat usually never do. Blue star females typically co-exit; meleagris generally do not.
