I wouldn't recommend growing ice plant in a tropical climate due to the humidity.
Ice plant really suffers in soil that's constantly damp and is prone to root rot, like many other succulents.
If you're looking for a succulent that does well in a tropical environment, Tillandsia, or air plants, may be your best option. They're slow growing, but they don't require soil and instead get their water from the air itself. I'll link you to our store page on Tillandsia plants.
Another genus of succulent plants that tend to do well in humid climates is Kalanchoe.
