Hi Doodle. No, that would not be a good choice. Your Tortoise needs something similar to whatever is his natual habitat. Since I don't know exactly what type you have, you will have to read the information and than decide. It may be one of the "chip" types or maybe just sand and/or gravel, or maybe natural grass. It's going to depend on your Tortoise. I'm going to give you some links to a good bit of information, tips and suggestions for those who keep Tortoises. One link has some pictures of various types of habitats. I hope this will be helpful information and enable you to set up the best possible housing and exercise area for your little guy. If you have further questions, just let me know. Patricia
