Due to the fact that the area is completely underwater, aquatic enemies, such as [[Chomps]], [[Fangfish]] and [[Nemo]]es are found in large abundance in Kremlantis. The boss of Kremlantis, conjecturely named [[Colossal Clambo]], is found in the eastern quadrant of Kremlantis; as the name would imply, Colossal Clambo is a giant [[Clambo]].
