Strange Mark?
Afternoon, I noticed this strange mark on the head of my Chag this morning, i've only had her a week and she is a stunning fish purchased from HS Koi and the most friendly koi I've ever seen, the mark was not there yesterday so this is in no way me saying I have bought a dodgy fish. There is no wound whatsoever just a almost pencil drawn like T shape on the forehead as shown. I can't think of any sharp objects in the pond that could mark the fish but I'm just wondering if this type of scratch/mark will disapear?

It just looks like a scratch or rub to me. It should fade fairly quick as I have seen similar marks on my chag and ochiba's.

Is that a reflection of netting I can see in the photo?

It is... I have it on two wooden frames. The pencil like T shape is not a reflection though.

Could the mark have came from the netting if the fish had jumped? It looks like the same size as the reflection.

Your right it does very much look like a small net stamp, the koi basically lets me stroke her and I have brushed my hand across it and its not simply rubbing off so maybe its just temporaraly stained the head. Its a Blagdon net so isn't a dodgy cheapo that has been painted in anyway so it should be safe.

Chags bruise very easily. Should heal quickly though.
