The gray ooze can move through a space as narrow as 1 inch without expending extra movement to do so.

Corrosive Form

Nonmagical ammunition is destroyed immediately after hitting the gray ooze and dealing any damage. Any nonmagical weapon takes a cumulative −1 penalty to attack rolls immediately after dealing damage to the gray ooze and coming into contact with it. The weapon is destroyed if the penalty reaches −5. The penalty can be removed by casting the Mending spell on the weapon. The gray ooze can eat through 2-inch-thick, nonmagical metal or wood in 1 round.

Reference Text
