The size of a fish is dependent on many factors. The most important factor is genetics. Also important are size of aquarium, amount and type of food, and environment of aquarium. Goldfish will grow much larger in an outdoor pond than they will in an indoor aquarium, unless it is a huge aquarium. Goldfish in my outdoor pond grow to between 8-10 inches in length.

How can fish be influenced by another fish?

Bettas become particularly aggressive when they find other fish with large fins. This is an example of an influence in behavior.

If there are little amounts of fish, they will grow quickly and large, as opposed to fish who are tightly packed in one tank, who don't grow as much and, sometimes, stuns their growth.

How can you make sure you will grow BIG fish 1kg or more in an experimental fish tank?

It is impossible to make sure or guarantee that a fish will grow to a large size. But one can give a fish every opportunity to grow well and reach its maximum potential size. What you will need is a very large tank or pool large enough to house the fish comfortably when it is full size, a constant supply of fresh water, and a constant supply of suitable food available at all times. You will need to control the heat of the water, its pH and GH too. Provided you get everything right your fish will grow to its full potential.
