Id drop it down to two or three times a week and no chicken . Shrimp , tilapia , catfish , any white fish . I usually throw in three or four shrimp or half a tilapia fillet. My rhom is eleven inches long and I feed him twice a week at most never on a set schedule .
What and how much do you feed your rhom

So yesterday i fed him once. this morning i noticed my 9" mangos pleco torn up and 4 danios missing. i lost one in the week feeding twice a day. guess he gets it his way
by the look of your rhom in the pix you posted I would think it could use some fatten up, perhaps that's why it's been eating so much.
it's a good thing that your rhom could eat but it doesn't burn up the same amount of calorie in your tank as it does in the wild so eventually you should cut back after it puts up enough weight other wise you'll start to notice its back start to bulge out and body starts to get "round"

Ya i noticed they aren't the most active fish but mine sits infant of a 1000gph pump all day in the current. id but this thing takes down shrimp like they are going out of style
I wanted to find out how many he would eat. 7 in a row not letting them be in the tank more than a minute each, and most were taken instantly. yes he looks fat and i don't plan on doing this every day, but to give u an idea and these are whole uncooked peeled 31-40 count shrimp.
