I've had my palmas palmas for quite some time and he seems to have maxed out at around 10-11 inches. He just doesn't seem that thick when I see pics of someone's palmas polli/delhezi/etc. I was wondering what food I could feed him that would give him some more girth and I could use as a staple. He currently is given Hikari Cichlid gold, bloodworms, and silversides if he can down them.
 
Sounds good!:) I really want to see him gain some size!
 
Twice per day, But not that all the time, I give them one meal shrimp and the other meal my home mad cichlid mix, The extra ( Beef heat..etc) twice a week, Chicken breasts twice per month
But my Home mad cichlid mix contains: shrimp, Tilabi ,Beef hear,Beef liver and some vegetation
 
combination of what everybody else has said, tilapia, shrimp, beef heart, chicken, etc pretty much the highest protein food you can find with the least fat content
