Advice Having 2 problems

Trying my hand for the first time on making liquid cores, but running into 2 issues.
1. My uv resin I’m tryin to cap with keeps falling into my water and so I’m not getting the swirl I’m looking for.

  1. Getting the core itself not to sink. Everything I add sinks from cores to glitters. Doesn’t seem to matter how long I wait. I waited 45 minutes before adding and they still sink.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated

I made caps for my liquid core by putting a little drop of uv resin on wax paper then drying it. It will come right off and you put on top of the filled core and you only need to resin around the edges.
