I recently found a used 10 gallon aquarium i was planning on setting up
but i discover today that it has a few small cracks in it (2 cracks and
a chip in the corner about halfway down the tank)

I wouldn't trust it. 10g of water all over your floor can do a lot of damage. A brand new 10g is less than $10. Good ones without cracks or chips can be found for about half that in a second hand store.
