I have no idea what a target catfish is but if it was me i would rehome the mozambique mouth brooder the jewel and the Kenyi and possible the target catfish and go for a south america themed tank with the oscar and sailfin as the two centre pieces, with possibly a shoal of silver dollars and a few Sa catfish

i can think of a few people who would disagree greatly with you there, but thankyou

As for the stocking of the tank i'd lose the kenyi personally, rift lake cichlids really need to be in rift lake biotopes with rock work and can be a bit too aggressive for inclusion in non rift lake communities, but thats just my personal take on them.
Your 96x19" tank gives you a lot of options of the non tankbuster variety, just avoid anything with a potential adult size above around 12-14"
