Yes, the species is still around. The group is just in a... hiatus... of sorts. When I took over ownership of the species, I didn't get all of the necessary assets and info before the previous owner deactivated the Liqui-Dex account (my fault), so me and the admins are working on filling the holes. We will put out an announcement once everything is done and ready.
Also, I am very sorry I didn't get around to your inquiry sooner. I have been very busy and distracted.
