Need help IDing this Triggerfish (not sure where to post this)

In FL, we have several of these little guys in the sargassum seaweed around Central FL's beaches. Since several species of triggers will spend their juvenile time in the seaweed, I'm not sure what kind this little guy is:

I have another fish from the Sebastian Inlet I'd also like to identify (in my photo gallery), but I can't post links yet. I appreciate any feedback, and thank you for looking.

First one looks like Scobinichthys granulatus, rough leather jacket (file fish) and it may be small now...but will get to ba 10-11". The other looks like a Scolopsis ghanam, pale band spinecheek (also gets 10-11"), I'm sure someone has a better common name for it though.
