Help! What are the tiny bugs?

I've inherited a fish tank that was in an terrible state, it's getting better but still not great. Can't really clean it because it's inside a media wall and it's about 140L while i only have access to like 20cm of that. Now out of nowhere I go like a hundred of these tiny bugs. Recently added some plants to the tank and 5 amano shrimp that I haven't seen since adding them.

Edit: Apparently they are baby fish. Thanks for the help, panic over.

Will this tank be good to use in a build?

Originally bought this tank about a month ago off of Facebook marketplace place along with some others for a good deal and noticed only after buying the largest one has this wavey like glass for the bottom. Just wanted to know if it is safe to hold water for a fish tank and I’m unsure any thoughts?

Is this tank usable?

I bought a 125 gallon off marketplace for $100, but the crack was bigger than expected.

He had it professionally sealed, and I have seen it filled up with water. 125 gallons is a lot of water though, and I'm about to move to a second floor apartment.

Can I trust this seal? If not, is the tank still salvageable if I have the glass pane professionally replaced?

Thanks for your help!

What is this Worm/Leech thing?

Grabbed a bucket of gravel from the edge of a creek to add to my tank. Eventually 2 of these things popped up and tend burrow themselves partially in the ground.
