This is expected. What is happening is that the roots are drowning. While roots need water, they also need air to function correctly. Too much standing water blocks the air and suffocates the roots.
In hydroponics, where plants are grown in nothing but water, the water must be kept moving to help aerate it so that the roots can get air from the aerated water.
