All are suitable, red foots can live on vivs, leopards can live in vivs but most are fine on tortoises tables,

Maybe choose a few species and write about temps they need, if there climbers diggers, like your horsfields, sullys like to make borrows, reds like high humidity

You need to make 5 posts then you can post on your account. Before that every post will be reviewed by moderators and you have to wait some time before it appear. HTH
Any land dwelling tortoise will live ahappily on the table, you may need to provide more heat/ humidity for some species.
