Is there a community for asking questions about pet symptoms? Maybe a place where vets share advice?

I already go to my local vet with our dogs when needed but we have no vets for aquatic animals here and I could use some advice about an issue some of my fish have.

I could imagine though that it could also be a good place to share experiences and advice about more obscure issues for any pet, like SLO in dogs. We got a diagnosis from the vet, but a lot more advice online about it.

I think the way to go right now is to create or post in broader, more top-level kind of communities. Lemmy doesn't really have a lot of traffic, and what would probably be a small or medium community over on Reddit is a niche community over here.

To avoid that, find or make something like /c/shoes then post your Vans content there. You may find a larger audience more quickly, and can break out in to smaller subcommunities when there's enough content submitters to justify it
