As for fish, one of the smaller livebearer species (endler's is one, but there are some killer other varieties...AW has a few) would work. There are some pygmy/micro rasboras that would work well too.
Last, what about a tiny sponge filter behind the stump? filtration and aeration are never a bad thing. not sure about the green shrimp, but you can easily get by with no heater with red cherry shrimp and endlers and most other livebearers. I am low on endlers, but i'll have some more (for free) in a few weeks. I have plenty of red cherry shrimp.
Let me know how the crystal red shrimp does. Those typically get kind of fussy about water quality, and without filtration, might be an uphill battle.
