well i never intorduce new water yet, and the frys are over a week old, i feed them infusoria and first bite fry food, now i notice some frys died, is this natural that not all frys survive? heres the pic where my frys are born.
i order tha Atison fry food but havent came in yet.

is this too small or i need a bigger tank? could it be the filteration too?

A water change might be a good idea....when I had fry I was changing out water just about every day for the first 2 or 3 weeks. You have to do it slowly though and make sure the replacement water is the same temp. Don't just pour the water in....let it syphon in using airline tubing..that way it's added slowly and won't jostle the fry.

If it's a fairly small tank, changing some out every day may be a good idea....check your parameters and see what you have there. It is normal to loose a few here and there but if there's a whole lot of them keeling over, then something is amiss.
 
my mollies just recently had another batch, and about 7-8 have already died. there almost a month old and none have died since. I think its just nature's way, and you have to get used to it

i think you're tank is a fine size
