Try feeding the bloodworms by hand next time.
I use a medicine dropper for feeding. The type that is used for liquid
medicine that you get at the pharmacy.
They're larger than an eye dropper, so they're better for folks with a
lot of fish to feed. An eye dropper would be better for feeding a small
amount of fish.
Squeeze out small amounts for them near the bottom of the tank, or
where they hide.
They'll quickly learn that this thing brings yummy food and is not to
be feared.
Then when they're used to it and coming out of hiding for it, start
holding it higher in the tank and putting your face near the same
level. They learn SO FAST that way that you are the God / Goddess of
the bloodworms and soon will come out and beg you for food just for
walking by the tank.
They'll soon compete with each other and the other tank mates for your
attention when at the tank.
The trick is to get them to associate your face/you with those
bloodworms and other good treats.

Are these frozen bloodworms ?
If not, where would I get fresh ones ?

Bloodworm, of any description, attracts every Angel, Platy, SAE, and Danio
in the tank, so it might well be gone before th CL's get a look-in :-)

One of them is very bold. He/she is out every feeding time, it's just the
other two.
