I kept a ribbon eel for a numbers of years a few years back. the trick I used to get mine to begin feeding was to put a piece of food in the tank floating down in the vicinity of the eel and using those extended food grippers I would grab the food in the water column. The eel got anxious each time because I imagine it looked like another eel type animal taking his food! So after a while the eel started going for the food as well because it must have "learned" that its food through watching the fake eel grab the food. Anyways it worked for me and my guy lived for about 5 years before he passed away. It might work for you.
