Colossi can not learn, so he'll never learn how to swim, and won't improve combat performance over time. In addition to no regen this means he'll only get worse, so use him wisely before he'll get tattered. Also, archery target isn't the brightest idea, my adventurer colossus has met his end after several encounters with archers which led to fracturing both of his arms.
several things: colossi have a [CAN_LEARN] tag iirc and so he will. also, using bone/wooden bolts will be perfect here.

If you don't have 9,001 Cat Bone Bolts, then your fort isn't working properly!

They don't. They do have [NOTHOUGHT], fwiw.

no thought means they don't need an organ with the [THOUGHT] tag (brains). CAN_LEARN allows them to learn, obviously enough. I believe it also prevents you from butchering them in adventure mode..

One cage should do the trick.  Never attempted myself, but I don't believe they're [TRAPAVOID] so you should cage it easy.

Also, not sure if you're aware, but if you kill a bronze colossus, it leaves behind a mastercraft bronze statue.

Mechanism and cage quality have no effect on the effectiveness of cage traps. Did you give bronze colossi [TRAPAVOID]?
