Ash is roughage and is included in the commercial mixes to help keep the fishes bowels healthy. If you simply put Ash into the tank, you will not be putting in food, but rubbish and eventually you will kill the fish.

Is there a no ash cat food?

Not if it is a good quality, complete nutrition cat food. "Ash" is what is left behind when all of the fat, protein, carbohydrates, fiber and water are removed. Ash includes minerals like calcium and phosphorus that are necessary for a cat's metabolism and survival. "No ash" cat food would be unhealthy to use as a cat's sole food source. As an aside, ashes are not added to the food for this mineral component. "Ash" is just a measurement made by incinerating/burning a food sample, and whatever is left behind (the protein, etc. are burned off) is considered the "ash" component measurement of the food.


What happens to the mass of food when burned?

When food is burned, the mass of the food remains constant. However, the chemical bonds in the food molecules break, releasing energy in the form of heat and light. The ash residue that remains after burning is a fraction of the original mass and consists of the non-combustible components of the food.


When food is burned are all the minerals are found in the ash?

No, not all minerals will be found in the ash when food is burned. Some minerals may vaporize or react with the combustion process and not be present in the resulting ash. This is why burning food is not a reliable method for determining its mineral content.
