I caught another ribbon today. This one has a lump about the size of a BB on his right side a couple of inches above his tail.
What is this? I am quaratining him from the other ribbon for a while as I think is always wise to do. Is he safe to put in with the other?

My guess would be some sort of blister or bacterial abcess.
