The tub doesn't seem airtight.
I was buying the 1kg pot to use in my koi pond for water changes and to control the spring ammonia/nitrite spikes until the filters settled down. I last bought it in april and it was £36 but when i went to reorder it has gone up to over £51 so decided to look at other alternatives. I came across this 4kg tub which at first i thought was really expensive but then once i divided the price by 4 it actually works out at around the £36 per kilo that i was paying before so decided to order it as it will last for absolutely ages. The tub arrived in an Amazon box with a sheet of brown paper for protection 🙆 🤦 and there was a strong smell of the powder so i initially thought it was damaged but on checking the tub it appears to be intact. After a few hours theres still a really strong smell of the powder in the room (if you have used safe then you will know the smell) leaving me to think that the lid is possibly not airtight. This could be a major issue as the powder itself will last for years as long as it's kept in an airtight container and no moisture gets to it. The product itself gets five stars, the three stars are for 1, Amazons packaging and 2, the issue with the lid and being able to smell the product. I'm going to try and make sure that it will be ok and will update this review with any further information i get be it from Seachem or Amazon.Update.... I spoke to the UK's sole distributor of Seachem products who were very helpful, they looked into my query then called me back and they confirmed that I should not really be able to smell the contents with the lid on however the tubs that they had in their warehouse did have a feint smell to them as well. They did confirm that if the powder still looked ok and had not gone solid then it should be absolutely fine but if I wanted to be extra sure to take it out of the tub and store it in an airtight container or if I wasn't happy to do that return it to Amazon. I have now put the tub inside a vacuum storage bag and will keep it in there. Because they were so helpful I have decided to give four stars instead of the three I gave initially.
