There is a possibility that your baby molly is harrassed to death.
If the parameter in the two tanks are significantly different, I'd suggest you acclimitize them in the same way as you would with new fish.
Babies are more fragile than adult fish.

Neons can get nippy, they won't eat your fry but harrase it enough to kill.

Good luck!
