Considering purchasing some of those 12-14" Freshwater Morays that Wes sells. My question for experienced keepers of these fish are whether they are capable of swallowing my 2" clown loaches at that aforementioned size? Thx!!!

Ask Wes. He may tell you himself. He must know what can be kept with them. Sorry for the obvious answer.

I think it should be fine. I have 1 somewhere around 8-10" and its mouth isn't even big enough to eat a large guppy but it definitely will outgrow the clown loach so even though it's safe now, it'll definitely be in danger later on

I have a 2" CL with my 14-16" Polyur's. CL's body are to big for their mouth and just to set your mind at ease, I have 2 1" Ottos and we all know their body is very small... no issues. With confidence, go for it if you are worried about a 2" CL

They have bad vision so they do not chase food, they smell for it and when they are near food, they still smell it to make sure. Which is why I believe they have never taken down the Ottos.
