Do a nice big water change 2 days before you leave, and feed lightly before you go. They will be fine for a few days with out food and feeding them less before you go means they will poo less while you are gone, leaving the water less dirty.
Do not give them a nice big feeding to hold them over -
1) they will poo a lot, dirtying the water.
2) they may become constipated and you wouldn't be around to help them.
Do not use food blocks -
1) they are gimmicks designed for fish and pollute the water more than they help feed your pets
Do not throw a bunch of feeder fish in for them to feast at will -
1) they ofted die with in a few days and their rotting bodies will quickly foul up the water
2) they are often diseased and one diseased fish can infect your whole tank.
