spiny eel food

Frozen bloodworms and brine shrimp are usually eaten happily by most species of spiney eels. If the other fish are too quick/competetive for the eel, try spot-feeding it with a turkey baster, or train it to be hand fed. They are pretty quick learners, particularly when it comes to food.
 
I have 3 spiney eels, and all have done well to eat bloodworms, and everyonce ina while like once a week i'll put some feear guppies in there, they LOVE those. I have been learning how to feed them by hand too but i'm to chicken :p
 
i agree with frozen blood worms... just make sure your tank is closed tight so he cant jump out like mine did
