Forget the algae eater, unless you can feed it to a larger Oscar.. I would
think the Goby to be very agressive, and the others would probably work just
fine...

Is your tank 6 INCHES x 15in. x 18in. , or 6 FEET x 15in. x 18in. ???
It makes a difference ...

Some of the fish on your list will not get along at all. The goby will be
eaten by most of the others, and Chinese algae eaters get highly agressive.
The Brichardis have a reputation as " pretty, but mean little b#stards".

I'm not an expert on African cichlids, wish I could help more;

Sounds like quite the dinner party! I usually like the list the menu items
and the guests separately though.
