A sucking loach primarily feeds on algae, detritus, and small invertebrates found on the substrate of freshwater environments. They use their specialized mouths to graze on surfaces, scraping off food. In captivity, they can also be fed a diet of sinking pellets, blanched vegetables, and other plant-based foods to supplement their natural diet.

Is it possible for a male Siamese fighting fish to eat a Loach fish whole?

No! The betta fish might pick on the loach but it cannot "eat a loch whole", a loach can sometimes bury itself under aquarium sand or hide under aquarium decor, most loaches are shy, and prefer swimming at the bottom. Some are nocturnal, your loach is probably hiding somewhere. Bettas have small mouths and cannot really eat anything whole if it is more than a few millemetres across. Plus, a betta's stomach is only as big as a small bead so I doubt it could eat any fish whole.
