I have him inside and was wondering what's safe to plant inside his enclosure? I want to make it look nice. Any advice is welcomed. Thanks in advance.

Aloe Vera, jade plants, succulents, grasses, clover, mallow.
To some degree it depends in what you want the plants in there for. Whether for food or decoration. I've got aloe Vera and jade as well as succulents in with mine and they only have sample sized bites missing from them. I plant clumps of grass and weeds that get eaten very fast.

My sulcata loves his Aloe Vera and chows down on the ferns. Arboicola(Umbrella plants) make good cover, look cool and are super easy to care for. Be sure to use diatomaceous earth or mix beneficial nematodes in your soil. Otherwise, you will have a bug problem. Here's mine(Aloe in in the corner you can't see.


Sorry if pic shows twice.

If you look on the tortoisetable.org you will be able to find lots of plants, weeds and flowers that you should be able to get.

That's all orchard grass in my enclosure. Cheap to buy and grew fast and thick.
