Tilapia of some kind. Not the Oreochromis aureus I'm used to seeing around here though. There are several species of tilapia which have been introduced to Florida. BTW possession and transportation of live tilapia is prohibited in FL with the exception of 4 species (so don't get caught with a live one). Those 4 species are "restricted" and require a permit to possess. There is a lot of misinformation floating around, but I called Florida Fish & Wildlife and heard it straight from the horse's mouth.
