How to keep a water mob stuck to the seafloor

There needs to be an option to allow a mob to be a water mob, generate in water, but on the seafloor, and have the mob be unable to swim - only "jump". The mob needs to be able to sink to the seafloor when spawned in water with a spawn egg or /summon. Basically, I need a feature to allow having a water mob that is unable to swim (or not float). I'm trying to make a Starfish mob that breathes water, but cannot swim and moves slowly on the seafloor.

Create a normal mob and set immune to drowning. Maybe that can work

That works until it gets about 10-ish blocks from a land. then it just sits there indefinitely, not moving. and they're attracted to shore so they normally just leave the water and hang out on land if its close as well.
