Melanotaenia duboulayi
Rhadinocentrus ornatus

Galaxias sp. too I think and maybe a native pygmy perch
maybe some cichlids or livebearers that aren't native but have been released.

is ther a chance of catching like large aquariums fish like Oscars or retails and fish like that or would they never survive in brisbane waters

They don't naturally occur there but if someone has released some into the waterways, there is a possibility you might catch an Oscar or some other cichlid. I doubt there will be a redtail catfish, they cost too much and are too hard to get, so people won't be dumping them in creeks.
