Advice on ciliatus tank

At the moment I have two crested geckos, a breeder male (2? yrs old: orange flame: 32g) and a female (2 yrs old: buckskin: 35g) and I'm thinking of moving them from their 15 tall to a larger designer tank. I'm particularly interested in Zoo Med's terrarium that is 18x18x24. This has significantly more volume than a 29 long.

I'm also considering buying another female to get started on a small colony. Would this tank be too small for 3 adult animals? I've read that your total animal SVL should not exceed 50% the length of their enclosure. Since height is more important to these guys, I was wondering if this would be sufficient.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
