Objective: to examine the potential of fish powder seluang fish as an alternative protein source in complementary feeding for toddlers. Methods: Analysis of the protein content of fish powder seluang fish using Titrimetri methode. Then the data was analyzed descriptively. Results: the results showed that fish powder seluang fish contains 71.8% protein in 0.3 grams of sample. Conclusion: fish powder seluang fish has great potential as a raw material for complementary feeding as a source of protein for toddlers. It is hoped that the development of complementary feeding product based on seluang fish can increase protein intake and improve the nutritional status of toddlers, thereby reducing the incidence of stunting in toddlers.
