Default sick fish?

i have recently noticed one of my koi approx 10" has a almost clear film of mucus forming along the top of its back.

its feeding and behaving as normal though, any ideas?

Have you tested your water or had a scrape done as fish usually produce more mucus when there is a problem ie parasie or bad water quality

water quality appears fine, tests all normal, no other fish showing any signs.

could it be that this one fish just appears to have more than usual?
