What ever you do don't stick your bare hand in there!!! I believe it's a purple people eater

Obviously I have no idea, I've never seen anything like it before, but there's some sharp people on here so I'm sure you'll get an answer... free bump

Nice looking hammer. I've had bubble(s) in mine as well, but not quite like in your photo. They persisted for some time, didn't 'eject' in a few days as seems to be your experience. Hasn't happened in some time now, but I don't think there's any reason to be concerned. In my case, it seems the head was 'splitting', since once the bubble did go away, the single head appeared to become 2? The mysteries of marine critters.

Yeah, it's a weird one. That hammer is quite small compared to the other one I have and it looks quite robust but hasn't split yet. So perhaps that's what is about to happen.

That's a great photo you included. I got myself a nanoscope, which I love, but I haven't learned to take photos with it yet.
