Growing Bamboo Plants - Twisting Water Plant

I searched the Q & A's and didn't find my answer so here goes. I have a small twisted bamboo that grows on stones in water. My question is can I trim the roots to promote growth or should I just leave them alone? I have had it for almost 2 years and change the water occasionally; it grows beautifully. So do I leave it alone or is there a benefit in trimming the roots? Like you would with fresh flowers put in a vase?

Thank you for your time and I appreciate your insight in this matter. I will look for you response. Thanks again.

There are plants which can grow in water only and are sold at Oriental booths in the malls. They look like a tall stick but they begin to twist near the top.
