4ft long x 2ft wide x 2ft high for each one separately, you shouldn't house in pairs it can create a whole lot of problems. For my breeding tanks I go 6ft long but only keep them together long enough to get the job done and then it's back to their own cages.

if both are female and get along, the largest the better, 6'x2'x2' would be plenty of space for two females. However always keep in mind that they may not get along with eachother forever so always be prepared to separate one from the other. Watch for any signs of stress, any significant difference in size etc. But make sure they are both female.
