There are two sets of ocular tentacles: one set in front of the eye (pre-ocular) and one set behind the eye (post-ocular). The digital and labial tentacles are arrayed circularly around the mouth, with the digital tentacles forming the outermost ring and the labial tentacles in between the digital tentacles and the mouth.
Nautilus are unable to easily move across areas deeper than 800 metres, and most of their activity occurs at a depth of 100–300 metres deep. [4] Nautilus can occasionally be found closer to the surface than 100 metres, however, the minimum depth they can reach is determined by factors such as water temperature and season. [4]
