Update: The new tank might have a small scratch on the right side. That might be a big problem. Does it hold water perfectly anymore or will the tank leak?

Hard to tell from the pic if its a scratch or a crack.
If its a scratch its fine, if its a crack it should be fixed.

If you can feel it on both sides of the glass its a crack

I can feel the scratch on one side (the back of the glass, not the front part).

Front area (where the Aqua One logo is displayed) on the right side, and I can feel the scratch on one side of the glass with my fingernails.

Probably done from an algae scraper, my tanks are full of scratches like that.

Or sand or gravel caught in a sponge.
You may be able to polish it out, or at least improve it, using toothpaste.
