Based on such a tiny picture it's hard to tell but the above assessment seems to fit Creole Wrasse - Clepticus parrae - Wrasses - - Caribbean Reefs

Definitely creole wrasse.
and they are at a cleaning station. You can tell by their arrangement.
Creole wrasse swim in long stretched out almost single file schools. All fish pointing in the same direction.
Except when they encounter a cleaning station. Then you will see them stop, extend their jaws and allow cleaners on them. We often see juvenile Spanish hogfish as one of the cleaners.
