Do these break apart and dissolve quickly or will they hold their shape well in water?

They brake apart as the fish eat them. My fish don't give them time to Dissolve. They would if they sat there to long

Does this include Algae for plecos?

It has soldier fly larve, salmon, wheat, peas, potato, alfalfa & vitamins. I supplement with hikari algae wafers as well

How long does it take these pellets to sink? My fish prefers food that sinks quickly.

They sink IMMEDIATELY for my fish!!!! As soon as you drop them in there they sink so I’m confused on the rest of the answers … uhh…..?! Yes , yes they sink immediately, not as fast as the bigger pellets for adult fish but that is because they’re bigger pellets , more weight . These are tiny pellets that sink right when they make water contact ………..
