Small crack will it affect the tank ?

It looks like the crack has already ran .
As long as it doesn’t split again.
It also looks like it’s just under the euro bracing.
You could add a piece of glass over top of the crack.
I would test fill as suggested and probably go with it.
But it’s a big risk to take with your home and floors.

I've had it filled already . Althought the bracing as you can see from the photo was over it . I'm not sure if I've picked the tank up like this . The crack is just in like with the bracing . I'm not looking to set this up for a few months . So I might retest the tank for a week with water in it to see if it holds .
If you aren't setting it up for a few months leave it to sit for more than a week. Is it drilled or are you using an h.o.b. filter. If h.o.b. maybe set it on to add movement and see if it adds too the crack at all. Or if you have the time just back it with more glass as suggested
I'm going to back it with more glass and once it's settled leave it for a week full of water . Then j can see how it holds up etc .
