Are they really ribbonfish. Wicopedia describes them as. The ribbonfish are any lampriform fishes in the family Trachipteridae. These pelagic fish are named for their slim, ribbon-like appearance. They are rarely seen alive, as they typically live in deep waters, though are not bottom feeders. We used to catch what we called Ribbonfish in the Gulf Of Mexico. Really slim and long with lot's of pin sharp teeth. Probably not a real Ribbonfish just a local term. Some of them were 3' long. Sort of like a real nasty Eel.
