Also, as a side note. I have dosed metro directly into the tank. It's not as effective as feeding the fish the Ep salts and metro, but if the fish won't eat the medication I dose the water. I would be hesitant to starve a fish that is sick. If a fish has a healthy appetite and will eat, that helps the fish's health a great deal IMHO. I would not withold food. This is my 2 cents. Some may disagree.
