For course they are not mutanted! I know that. They are freaky though, so I will call them mutants

Just because something look different doesn't mean it should be called a mutant. I mean, do you call people you find ugly "mutants"?
And you
didn't know that. If you did, this thread would be titled "Deep Sea Fish Wash Up On Shore!".

Just think of the damage these fish could cause. Some have HUGE teeth, and would attack you on sight. Some of those would probably spray you with poison of some sort. Maybe some are harmless...but that Viper Fish would scare me if I was waay underwater.

Most of those fish are extremely frail or fragile, so I doubt they could cause humans much harm. Many probably died just from being exposed to sunlight for too long.
And as Mojo said, none are poisonous. They rely on their bioluminescent bodies or appendages to draw in prey, and then, when the prey is close enough, they devour them.
