Do NOT just ask the pet store. The employees are hardly ever trained properly (if at all) and only tell you what the company wants to sell (like, "seeds are good to eat, this is the cage they need" etc). I like the cage you picked out, but my personal favorite is on qualitydiscountcages.com it's the A17 multi level cage. My 'Toos love it!
When you get him/her, make sure to feed it a PELLET diet, not seeds or it'll get fatty liver disease.
Moluccan 'Toos are known for screaming and are filling up the shelters so at the first sign of screaming, you need to start with training. Here's the website with instructions. It works on pretty much every bird. http://www.cockatootrainer.com/screaming/
Good luck! You may want to join the cockatoos group here on yahoo. They're a wealth of info and are really fun people to talk to!

I had been looking at the one Cliffieduckie suggested, but I was wondering what it would be like to try to clean since it appears that there is only the one door to get at both sides. It looks like a great cage and has a playtop, so I kept looking for something very similar and found this:

It's 42" x 26". It has a divider that you can put in to keep 2 birds in their own separte sides. It also comes in stainless steel. I'm not sure of the cage sizes for Mu Toos. I have a Grey. Maybe another poster could tell you if this cage is big enough.

If the cockatoo is small it can get through the sides because bars or to for apart. Check and see

You should go to the pet store and get expert advice. They will help you make a better decision on which cage to buy.
