Problems with my starter

For some reason, my sourdough breads are not rising as they used to.  I'm going to take a break from sourdough bread making and send my starter off to "boot camp"!

In this pic you can see there is a little action, small bubbles on top. I have put it in a wider mouthed vessel for now while I clean its regular jar and doctor the beast itself. The wide mouth container will also allow more surface area for capturing whatever natural wild yeast float into my kitchen.

I have poured out 1 cup of starter and will feed it soon. First I want to see how much action I have in it before feeding it.
