I put it in a 5 gallon bucket and its floating would it be alright to put it in my tank?

Yes, you can tie a rock to it or sit one on top of it. You can also use a stainless steal screw to attach it to a piece of slate. It will eventually stay submerged by itself. It will probably leach tannins for a while but they can be removed with PWC.
