Good move to get the safe up off the floor. Regular quickrete is fine, no PSI to worry about with for a gun safe. Use a mixer and carry it down in 1/2 filled 5 gallon buckets. I use a concrete vibrator to get rid of the voids. I think you can rent one of about $100.
You can tapcon the form.
You could skip the concrete and do a 2X12" (taller) wood box tapconned to the slab from the inside. Taller is better, brother in law go 10" of water a month ago, contents of safe probably damaged.
