Dive into the acid and get to the doorway high on the left wall. Note that you can wall jump climb in acid without gravity.
Dive into the acid to the left of the first floating platform to quickly sink to the bottom of the room. It is possible to jump directly over the pirate at the bottom of the ramp directly to the gap between platforms. Falling in this way will land between platforms at the bottom of the room unless Samus slows or catches herself on the way down.

Enter the room blue with very low run speed (e.g. with a 4-tap). Use a precisely timed jump to bonk the large stalagtite in the ceiling and fall through both pirates, killing them with the blue speed. Enter the acid while aiming down to shrink Samus' hitbox. This strat works with all combinations of movement items and suits.

Begin running from the top of the second slope and jump at the bottom of the third slope, bonking the large stalagtite in the ceiling. Kill the first pirate with Screw Attack (or ahead of time with Charge+Plasma), and pass through the second pirate using a charged plasma shot. Enter the acid while aiming down to shrink Samus' hitbox. This strat works with all combinations of movement items and suits.

Clear the runway by killing the pirate. Then Gravity jump after building as much run speed as possible.

Perform a gravity jump followed by a springball jump to reach the left side door. The gravity jump timing is very precise.

Acid allows for more time than water to perform Spring Ball jumps. This gives just barely enough time to fit in three spring ball jumps.
