For a Sulcata landscape? I have not seen anything on it good or bad..

Your thoughts?

Centipede is prerfectly fine for tortoises. I have it my yard here in South Carolina. I also work for the laregest turfgrass produceer in the South, and we grow an awful lot of it. If you're in the right geographic area, centipede is hard to beat.
If your tortoise overgrazes it (too much tortoise, too little grass,) however, that can be a problem.

My tortoise (sulcata) will not touch a single blade of it.
If they have no choice I suppose they'll eat anything. But
you'd be better off using bermuda grass. I use centiped in his
pen just as a walkway and where I put his hay and greens, we have to
cut it in the summer, he won't eat it. Centipede is agressive and
resists weeds (good in the front yard, not in a tortoise pen).
