Of the three kuhli loaches I can currently see ( I hope another didn't die during vacation)...one seems to be growing more rapidly and is much fatter then the other two which don't seem to have grown at all.
If I didn't feed enough, would the strongest kuhli loach eat food away from the others?...

it sounds like the biggest one is getting all of the food. try feeding them a little more in different spots.

look all around the tank for the other two. make sure to check in the filter also.

One thing to consider is the fact it might be a different species. They come in mixed quite often. Pangio myersi grows significantly bigger and deeper-bodied than most other kuhli species.
