"Be formless... shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle; it becomes the bottle. You put it into a teapot; it becomes the teapot. Water can flow, or it can crash. Be water, my friend..." - Lei Siu Lung (Bruce Lee)

Amphiprions have broad-spectrum mucus coating from birth that gives them some protection from all anemones.

What yours is doing is bonding with the hammer by taking its signature mucus in(eating it) and excreting that through its pores to mimic the mucus of the hammer.

Reefing is sharing. People with rotten mouth is sure a loser for life as expected. When a tomato gets rotten, you can nvr save it.. Throw it away before it infect the good ones.
