Question about ASFs

ShenziSixaxis

Sticking To The Ceiling
So, getting some of these guys, and hopefully going to be supplying them around the area. However... I am unsure of what space they need. I know mice don't need a whole lot, rats need about 2ft for one rat and then another 1ft per other rat (well, that was on pet rats, not breeders), gerbils need LOTS of space, but I dunno about these guys.

I plan on doing a rack system with tubs, so that's useful. What would be more useful is how many I could put in a 20gal long tank or 10gal tank, as I can quickly see those in my head, and since I plan on moving my okeetee out of the 20g tank; he doesn't use the extra space to climb (rather, he stretches his body as far up in the air as he can XD).

Besides this, I'm pretty down on what I need to know for ASFs. Although, do they, coming from Africa, tolerate higher temps (say, around 75F+) better than mice? And how do they fair in cooler temps (around 65F)?
