I feed my 20in+ snowflake moray eel 1 large silverside 4 times a week. Is this too often or too much? Should I decrease the amount or frequency? Or is this a good feeding schedule?

That quantity and frequency is fine for a moray. The one change I would make is to add some variety to the diet. Clams on the half shell, table shrimp, strips of uncooked salmon or tuna. Adding variety rounds out the nutritional needs.

. Oh yes I forgot to add that. I do feed shrimp and squid. I'll try to add clams and fish strips into the diet.
