Prickly Pear Cactus is often used for tortoises.
But you can't plant it *in* the enclosure or table. You need to grow it where your tortoises can't reach it and harvest the new growth for your tortoises since the old mature growth contains high levels of Oxalic Acid which blocks calcium absorption.
