hey there... my severum has developed this strange sac-like thing under his chin... he always had a bit of a scar there, but it never got any worse or better... then just this week it's like it blew up and bubbled out so now it's kind of like a smaller version of those weird bubble things...

I want to setup a 48G tank with a Severum as the main attraction. What dither fish can I add in with it? Can I put Zebra Danios or Blennies? Or will it pretty much kill those?
