My lil ol lady neighbor dumps in small Dixie cups with pre-measured freeze-dried plankton in it, every 3 days.

If you absolutely can not find anybody to help you with feeding your fish when you're gone they should be OK. You're only going away for 6 days and most fish can go longer without food. Just make sure to feed them well when you leave. I have had to do it before to my fish. I would only feel comfortable doing this if they're adults tho.
