Not sure but it was a big container. Lasted a long. Would recommend.

Would this be good for black skirt tetras?

no, this are too big - i would suggest Xtreme Nano - they love it.

Do the sink or stay at the top of the water?

It depends on how you drop them in the water. They are slow sinking essentially but a few stay floating for a little bit.
