Nightcrawlers IMO work best, mine didnt respond to bloodworms. Maybe black worms, try them if you would rather do that then nightcrawlers.
 
is that a bare-bottom tank ur keeping it in (if not ,forget my comment)? fire eels live to burrow in the substrate. That might be the reason it is not eating, it will get very stressed without a substrate.
