Can I house more than one male together in the same cage? I heard they will fight no matter how big of an enclosure they are in.

Depends on the enclosure size, and the individual male. I had 2 males and 5 females in a HUGE enclosure. Each male seemed to have it's own particular female, and I didn't notice any visible signs of stress. I have one male alone. He's very aggressive with both males and females, and bothers the females to mate constantly. I've tried him with different females, and once in a mixed group, to no avail. He's stuck as a bachelor. My advice is one male to 2 or 3 females if you have the space, and you want all the babies they're going to produce. Otherwise a small group or pair of females is nice too. JMO.
 
The enclosure is 30Lx18Wx30H. How many females could I put in there? Thanks!

I normally house a 1.4 or 1.5 colony in a 18x18x24 exo terra terrarium so a 30x18x30 you can house a nice size colony of 1.6-1.8 easy.
