Just plain frozen in a ziplock, but only for 2 weeks. I normally freeze in water, but I figured I'd be running though it in a few weeks time. If it's safe and just don't look pretty, I'm good with that. I just don't want to die of fishaids.

Freezing in water won't help with the coloration and will degrade the tuna. Best way to keep the color is to cut your steaks and then immediately into the freezer in a freezer ziplock bag. Wait 4-5 hours and then take them out and vacuum seal them in quality bags (4 or 5 mil).

The steaks you have should be fine. If they don't smell bad, you don't have a problem.
