After a long and hard debate of 6 or 7 months and much research, I have decided that at some point this year or next year I will be getting a Tokay.
However, I have found a little bit of debate on cage size, so I decided to come here and ask.

Most pages I have read suggest a 29-30 gallon minimum for one, others say a 20 will do fine for one Tokay. However, I also hear that people keep a breeding pair in 29-30 gallon cages.
So, my question is: What do you think is the best minimum size cage for a Tokay?

Oh, and if anyone breeds Tokays and has some experience, and they aren't too pricey, I may try to buy from you. Currently I am considering buying from one of these two places:

I always recommend Riverside Reptiles for CBB tokays. They aren't WC junk, so don't expect those kind of prices. As far as caging, you want at least 20x20x30" (l x w x h)enclosure. They can grow to over a foot, so providing ample space is very important.

Thank you for the info! I was wondering though, upon looking at their site (if it's the right one) they're located in CT, no? I didn't see anything about them selling animals so I would assume that you have to go their to buy them? (Sorry if I sound stupid haha)
