Excuse me! This is NOT a fish! It is called a Nautalist, a mollusc and relative of octopus, squid, cuttlefish, snails, and clams!

its not a nautalist, it is called a simbala fish or in spanish sembalia. it is a fish that tends to curl up at daytime. but swims for prey at night. they eat plants and plankton

Well its not a fish and its not a mollusk but you are right about it being called a nautilus and about it being related to octopus and squids but which makes it a cephalopod also an interesting fact it is the only cephalopod that has a shell thank you and have a nice day
