Should emersed leaves be removed when immersed leaves appear and start growing?
 
I remove them as they begin to show signs of decay. Once I have enough submersed growth, I pull, trim the emersed growth and plant the new submersed growth part.

In this instance, the emersed growth is doing very well as the submersed is also growing in well.
 
Give the new growth time to come in well. Once you have enough then start pulling off the old growth. You don't want to do it too soon as it can shock the plant. Just saying be patient and don't rush it.

Will do. I removed just a few blocking light from the new growth.
