how can i clean my fish tank for first time use?

Hi, I just bought a brand new 10 gallon glass fish tank from Petco and i am planning on raising Triops Longicaudatus in it.

The tank itself is pretty dusty, inside and out. I think it is because it was just in the store for a long amount of time.

How can I clean out this tank so i can begin assembling the tank?

Can I just rinse the tank out with tapwater and wipe it dry with some paper towels? or is that a bad idea?

WHATS WRONG WITH MY TRIOPS (AQUASAURS)?

my triops (aquasaurs) are upside down on the bottom of my tank and when they do move they seem to be swimming in a circle i changed the water for fresh bottled water again but they still are on there backs and some have died i have a undergravel filter and an iarstone in the tank so everything should be ok its a 12″ x 8″ glass fish tank, i never realised these are so difficult to keep
