You got him from a friend? He might just be old. The 2 feedings a day sounds good. I feed mine pellets in the morning then flakes sometimes in the evening.

11 deaths is not normal, have you been feeding them or been doing enough water changes?

No its not normal at all. I have saved over 8 batches of African fry and have only had 2 die on me out of at least 160 fry. Something is very wrong with your setup for Africans if your fry are dying and your male is so skinny.

How often are you doing water changes? Once a week is what it should be.
