Help! Fire Eel won't eat and is Dying.

[jaysfishtanks24]

I have been feeding him bloodworms but he won't eat them, and other frozen foods he might eat?

Will he eat live ? I'm pretty sure I read that some people feed their eels worms. Hopefully someone else will chime in.

I haven't tried, I give him the frozen hikari bloodworms. P.S. He is a juvenile eel

Food with garlic added is supposed to encourage an appetite. Are any of his foods available with garlic?

The only thing I ever got my fire eel to eat was live earthworms which were conveniently always in stock in the sporting goods department at the local walmart

Any chance, any of these super foods might help? http://tedsfishroom.com/repashy/

Is this a new addition? Or has the eel suddenly stopped eating?
