If we accept the idea that there is a fire buring on board the Galactica, we must also accept that it has something to burn. The hallways of the Galactica are pretty much empty metal tubes. No carpet, no drapes, no wood (unless you count the wooden frame around the door of the Rejuv center that's supposed to be painted to look like metal), no paper, etc. Is the fire simply buring atmosphere?

Keep in mind that metal CAN BURN or perhaps more appropriately, MELT, if sufficient heat is applied. For example, the kindling temperature of steel is 1500 degrees. Depending on the heat discharged by the exploding Cylon raider, it is very possible that the "metal could have melted" and the resulting glow from the intense heat may have given off the visual characteristics of a fire.
Just a plug nickel's worth of useless information.
