I am just trying to get started with my starter for the first time, but after feeding, the starter only minimally increases in volume and then a liquid layer forms between top and bottom layers of the yeast/flour/water mixture. See photo. How do I combat this and get my starter to really rise in volume? Thank you!!!

it seems thick - I am using a feeding ration of 1:1:1 for starter, wheat flour, and water. I am not missing the rise - I watch it like a hawk. It is at room temp, which is usually 70-80 F. I am feeding at least once a day and am now starting any time i see any liquid accumulating.
