i think surface water swimmer insects also prevent moving water..

Thanks for the suggestion, but am using a chiller then use fan... kinda defeat the reason I use a chiller

Dun wish to keep on adding water into the tank, disturbing the cycle of the eco system within.

chiller is indeed better than fan...
but much more expensive and space taking den fan also..

It's just an idea, maybe you can try half beaks (Dermogenys pusillus). http://badmanstropicalfish.com/profiles/profile49.html
I have them in my tank, & they're always swimming near the surface of the water, does'nt have any shrimps in my tank so i don't know if they'll eat shrimps.
According to the website, they'll eat mosquito larvae.
If they constantly stays on top & the shrimps are at the bottom, theoretically the shrimps should be safe.
