can you post that again with some punctuation..
 
I thought you had,or were getting an Oscar?
That seems like a awful lot of territorial male cichlids to me.Aggression might force you to reduce the numbers of them.
1 male convict,1 green terror,and 1 fire mouth would fully stock that tank IMO.They are all fast growers too.
Good Luck with them.

If you end up with a pair of firemouth's ,the black belt and green terror are not going to be welcome in the tank.I would honestly stick with 3 at the most,and no pairs.The BB gets the largest of all of them which is why I would suggest not keeping it.
You will need to have lots of driftwood and/or rocks in the tank to break the line of sight and hopefully reduce aggression some.Rearranging the decor can also help if/when aggression becomes a problem.
You will need to overefilter as well.
 
well then 1 bb 1 gt 1 fm 1 convict 2x w/c a week how does that sound? the fm and convict will be sam sex. and a buncha rocks to help break sightings
