since you have had no response, I'll give it a shot. It looks like a wrasse, dose it swim like bird up and down jerky motion? Then it is some kind of a wrasse, Juvenal wrasses do not look like the adults so it will be hard to identify. Just a precaution most wrasse are not reef safe and they will eat snails, crabs and shrimp.

I uploaded a better picture. Maybe it will help id the guy. Also, it swims like othere wrasse. It swims kind of jerky and it moves the front half of its body while the back half stays in place, similar to other wrasse.

There are a lot of verity of fish and the wrasse family is large. i suggest google wrasses native to Florida and see what you come up with.
