Some areas of my MC are growing really well, other's are dying off. I think this is dependent on which pots the MC came from or how I planted/separated some of the MC.
What do I do with the plants that are dying or die completely? This was the easiest photo to take, but behind the large rock it is much more severe. Some patches there are very much dead.
I'm not concerned because a lot of the tank is growing strongly, but just wondering what i do with all the decaying plant matter. Do i trim them down and let the roots shoot out fresh growth? Or do I just leave them to rot?
It should only drain a bit in the tank, when you refill the tank this should mostly refill ... just turn filter back on & all should be fine (at least this seems to work fine with my Eheim Pro's)And if I turn the filter off I'm guessing the intake will drain once water line is lower than the intake
The advantages of shrimp/snails added at tank start up (they do the fiddly bits)just wondering what i do with all the decaying plant matter.

Trim/brush/siphon away what you can (though depending on soil used, you may need to be very careful not to release plant completely from the substrate), where there's new shoots at the ends, you can "bury" the melty bits in the substrate (I expect this has resolved by now).
Nice hardscape
Thank you, that was the problem. There was a bubble just above the solution and there was a bit of liquid above the bubble. It created an airlock which must have been the issue. I popped it and now it's working fine.I'd also check there isn't any surface scum blocking the drop checker.
