Default Removing UGF for planted tank?

Okay I'm switching my 3' 150L(36G) community tank to a planted community
tank and was thinking about shutting down my UGF. I've also an Eheim 2213
running on it and was wondering if it would be a good idea to remove the UGF
plate and lift tubes or simply turn it off and leave it as it is. I don't
expect there to be much crud below it as compared to what I think is below
my 60L platy breeder tank. I've had it set up for a year but whenever I
vaccuum the gravel, there's hardly any muck compared to my smaller tank.
Any advice would be appreciated.
I've 2 3yr angels, a 1.5yr moss barb, 2 1.5yr neon tetras, 3 1yr runnynose
tetras, 2 3yr albino corys and 4 platys in it.
