    I got the tank below that i will be setting up on my desk. I unfortunatly cant add in any sort of light due to budgetary requiremnets as it would need to be an off the shelf unit that looks neat as its in an environment that has lots of people.

    What plants can i add in that will survive in the light that is in the office as it will stay open top and there is direct sunlight for a few hours a day?

    Jip, I second nodac. Might grow very slow, but they will grow. You might consider anubias nana, crypts and java moss.
