He'd probably appreciate more space. Of course, this is coming from someone who houses a single 60-gram female in a 20-gallon long (about 1 foot deep by 2.5 long by 1 tall), and wouldn't ever consider giving her more than one roommate, so others may disagree with me.

That's plenty. I keep groups of 3-4 in 16 x 22 inch sterlite containers. Some top breeders keep 5-6 animals in the same size.
It also helps to have hides that they can climb on. This adds to the usable space in the cage. One thing to remember though, the more animals in the cage the more frequently you will need to clean.
