you might get away with doing all that, but it is such a brittle plant it won't stay long

like it will die off or just let go and start floating again?

break at the slightest touch the pieces will float around and grow, might as well let it float.

If your wanting a plant with similar structure check out NAJAs guadalupensis. It is planted in the substrate or allowed to suspend it will send down roots to anchor itself
