“A large shell-dwelling creature that chases down Donkey and Diddy when they're underwater.”
Donkey Kong Land manual, page 20

Template:Species-infobox Nemos are aquatic enemies encountered in Donkey Kong Land. They only appear in the level, Nautilus Chase.

Unlike Croctopuses, who simply follow a set path, Nemos actually chase Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong throughout the level. When they are first encountered, they appear to be sleeping, but soon emerge from their shells as the Kongs pass by. The Nemo then follows behind them at a fast pace through the coral-filled level. If they are not fast enough, the Nemo attacks the Kongs. Nemos can not be defeated and do move quite fast, even in tight spaces. At some point however, the Nemos stop chasing the Kongs, and huddle back up in a corner somewhere around the coral.

The name of this species comes from Captain Nemo, who pilots the Nautilus submarine in the science fiction novel, Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea.
