The first choice, "I suspect that he would enjoy living with whales more than [he enjoys living with] us." is the correct one. Remember that elliptical clauses are sentences that are missing part of the clause and needs to be completed with a correct pronoun. In this case, the correct pronoun is "us". 

Let me know if you need anything else :)
