I would avoid doreanus and indicus, as they are quite shy and you'll seldom see them (that's what I read from people who own them). melinus can be far more easy going, and jobiensis I'm not sure.

In fact, any of these will be like that unless you start with a baby.

The size seems fine for adults.

Other than that, I also think you should start with a smaller cage for the first 6 months or so, but have the big cage ready as soon as you get the babies.
