I kind of did what Gabriele suggested with moving the FAB to the containing activity. Also you will need to update the FAB's color/clickListener in onTabSelected:

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity implements TabLayout.OnTabSelectedListener {

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

        ...

        setFloatingActionButtonForImagesTab();

    }

    ...

    @Override
    public void onTabSelected(final TabLayout.Tab tab) {
    switch (tab.getPosition()) {
        case 0:
            setFloatingActionButtonForImagesTab();
            break;
        case 1:
            setFloatingActionButtonForMusicTab();
            break;
        case 2:
            setFloatingActionButtonForVideoTab();
            break;
        }
    }

    ...

}

and then in the setup function just set the color and click listener:

private void setFloatingActionButtonForImagesTab() {
    myViewPager.setCurrentItem(0);
    floatingActionButton.setBackgroundTintList(getResources().getColorStateList(R.color.purple));
    floatingActionButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View view) {
            Snackbar.make(coordinatorLayout, "images", Snackbar.LENGTH_LONG)
                .show();
        }
    });
}

Make note of the call to setCurrentItem above. It is required now that you are implementing TabLayout.OnTabSelectedListener.
