I used to open up pomegranates under water too, but it is actually the pith--not the seeds--that floats. In ordinary water, the seeds just sink, so carbonation is the key. Now I open pomegranates without the bowl of water btw. If I am careful, I actually find it to be far less messy! Hey deb!

Gently pearce the skin on the quarter (4 times) from stem to stern. Place in a bowl of water deep enough to submerge. Soak for a while (1/2 hr) Peel back the skin section by section under water, and break into segments. The seeds, as you noted, will float to the top; the rind will sink to the bottom. Viola!
