Reference

monst.c#line511

The spotted jelly is a sessile monster that appears in NetHack.
As with the blue jelly, its sole attack is a passive attack that does acidic damage based on its monster level; the attack can also corrode iron weapons and armor. Unlike the blue jelly, it does not split or provide any helpful intrinsics.

Strategy
While very damaging when attacked in melee, spotted jellies are sessile, and can be easily killed with wands, disposable missiles, or an aklys if necessary. Pets, especially ones with multiple attacks, should be kept out of range.
