Sunny Bloom – Pumpkin, Papaya, Bee Pollen & Turmeric Growth & Vitality

Sunny Bloom is a nutrient-rich shrimp lollie designed to promote growth, vitality, and reproductive success in Caridina and Neocaridina shrimp. With a blend of pumpkin, papaya, and bee pollen, complemented by a touch of turmeric, this formulation supports digestion, moulting, and immunity while contributing to vibrant colouration.

Nutritional & Functional Composition

• Pumpkin (Cucurbita pepo): Rich in beta-carotene, vitamins A, C, and E, plus essential minerals such as potassium and magnesium to support healthy cell growth and immune function.

• Papaya (Carica papaya): Contains papain, a natural proteolytic enzyme aiding protein digestion and nutrient absorption, along with antioxidants to support moulting recovery.

• Bee Pollen: A highly concentrated natural source of amino acids, enzymes, and trace minerals that boost reproductive performance and larval survival rates.

• Turmeric (Curcuma longa, trace amount): Provides curcumin, a bioactive compound with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant benefits, contributing to overall resilience and subtle golden hue enhancement.

• Garlic (Allium sativum, trace amount): Stimulates feeding and provides mild antimicrobial properties.

• Eggshell Powder: Delivers bioavailable calcium essential for exoskeleton formation and stable moulting cycles.

Production Method

Handcrafted in small batches using low-temperature dehydration to preserve the full enzymatic and antioxidant profile of each ingredient. The powders are finely milled and sieved before being bound to wooden sticks without artificial additives or binders.

Key Benefits

Enhanced Growth & Reproduction – Bee pollen and papaya enzymes support rapid juvenile development and successful breeding.

Improved Digestion – Papain from papaya aids efficient nutrient utilisation.

Moulting Support – Calcium from eggshell ensures consistent and strong exoskeleton formation.

Immune System Boost – Turmeric and pumpkin antioxidants reduce oxidative stress and inflammation.

Natural Grazing Behaviour – Stick format encourages shrimp to feed for hours without polluting the water.

Usage Guidelines

• 1 lollie per 15–20 shrimp.

• Feed daily or every other day alongside a varied diet.

• Remove any uneaten portion after 24 hours.
