I started out with a baseball sized clump and in 3 weeks it has more than double in size. How big should I let it get? What do you do with the extra?

I usually harvest when it doubles in size. Either donate it to a fellow reefer or it goes into the trash.

Prefer to donate it as it’s usually teaming with pods etc.

Thank you. I would gladly donate. I'm assuming you can just pull it apart? Or is it best to cut?

Sorry, first time with cheto.

Just pull it apart. You can post on Craigslist or just your local reef forum. Usually either a new reefer or someone trying to repopulate their pod population will take it off your hands.
