Q: Will the balls breakdown? I want to use it with under gravel filter

They will break down over time.

Q: Does it have to be replaced after some time or is it permanent?

From what I’ve read, this has a life of about 1-3 years and then it needs to be replaced

Q: How much do i need per gallon of water?

It is calculated by tank dimensions. Try this link to a calculator. I hope this helps. https://www.plantedtank.net/substratecalculator.html

Q: Would one bag be enough for my 55 gallon tank?

Unfortunately no. Probably between 60-80 lbs. Try this link to help you calculate https://www.plantedtank.net/substratecalculator.html. Hope this helps you.
