The first picture is not good but I had to take it because I followed the turtle about 1/4 mile from the beach. The majority of the pictures are of queen Angel which is the one I saw the other day. Also the lion fish was the same as the other day as they were in the same area. The second to last fish is one I don’t recognize and don’t think I have ever seen.

Depending on size I would say its a juvenile Hogfish.

I had a similar thought but but the hogfish I have seen didn’t have that much color. This was much smaller so maybe a juvenile but the fins or whatever they are called are similar to a hoggish.

The Juveniles coloring is a light tan or coral color. Very different from adults. If you Google it it'll show what I'm referencing.
