No, it's not true that mid-ocean ridges are found only below the Pacific Ocean.

The Mid-Atlantic Ridge is a prominent example located between the Americas and Europe/Africa, while the East Pacific Rise is found in the Pacific Ocean. These ridges are formed by tectonic plate movements and occur globally.
