Statheros Period

The Statheros Period is the second period of The Tank's history, starting on the 24th December 2017. This period is marked by the stabilisation of The Tank's ecosystem and the decline of disease. The Tetras were the dominant group for the first half of the period; the April 2018 Extinction Event caused their extinction and the return of Guppies and a new organism; the neocaridina shrimp. In the late Statheros Period, the shrimp population started to explode and become the most popular organism by far. This period covers the whole of the Tetra Era and the early-mid Livebearer Era. It ends on the 1st October 2018, during the late Livebearer Era.
