Looks like a swimmer as opposed to a fire breathing flier. Looks damn cool though.

beautiful fish. I would set up a whole pond system if I can have one. Who knows one day I can ride it, fly around, and blow fire.

Nope, oarfish, not a ribbon fish.

oarfish
Oarfish - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Quote:
Oarfish are large, greatly elongated, pelagic Lampriform fishes comprising the small family Regalecidae.[1] Found in all temperate to tropical oceans yet rarely seen, the oarfish family contains four species in two genera. One of these, the king of herrings (Regalecus glesne), is listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as the longest bony fish alive, at up to 17 metres (56 ft) in length.[2][3]






Ribbon fish

Calling that fish a dragon is stupid. It is just another strange fish in the ocean.

You can call a horse a hornless unicorn but that does not make it one.

Dragon? Elusive Oarfish from the deep. From what little reading there is of them, not aggresive and would be harmless to man if in a confrontation.
