Two problems with that:

1. Why can't it use thunder attacks if it can ionize the air with a huge voltage?

2. Why isn't the hunter affected when he comes near Amatsumagatsuchi?

I would say it is Hydrogen that it pumps in its fins and other appandages as well as a thin layer on its chest. It can split the water it has into its elements, Hydrogen and Oxygen and also back. So it can use the right amount to lift it higher or lower.

For that it doesn't explode it has very resistant skin. But still it is vulnurable to fire but not as much as it would without that skin.

Well, that's at least my idea.
