Indirect light/ or some am/pm light is sufficient... there's no need for either full sun or full darkness. I used the water bottle as a mini greenhouse (ironically I used the same water bottle as a pot for the momma plant... I am very cheap). The water bottle greenhouse keeps the humidity up which may help the clone get established. Also I trimmed off the furthest portion of the leaf so the ratio of leaf to stalk was lower. The stalk holds water and leaf releases it so having a bit more stalk or a bit less leaf is good.

The sucker is broken off where it meets the momma plant, this is where it will naturally break off cleaner and easier. I think a healthy medium-sized sucker/side sprout is the easiest size to use.
