Spider tortoises do not get very big and are probably one of the most suited tortoises for keeping in that environment. They seem to like it hot and don't move around a whole lot. So far max size is about 6 inches for the females and 4 to 5 inches for the male. You could house a pair comfortably in an 80 gal tank with no problem.
Keep in mind that these guys are boring. They are not very active at all.
