Did he just lose some scales? It looks very superficial. Should I be concerned? Acting and eating fine. Everyone else looks good.

totally fine and really cool scale pattern! I see it in carp occasionally, not super common though. Google 'mirror carp' and you will get the idea.

That's not his normal pattern, there's scales missing, what happened is a mystery. He's been ok for a bit now so I guess I was in panicked mom mode for no reason :LOL:

The fish lost a scale, that's spot is a weak point on is body but usually nothing to worry about in a healthy pond. he probably rubbed against something
