Yep. If you put a 1000 ton boat in the ocean, the level rises just as if you put 1000 tons of salt water in the ocean. Don't try to measure it though.

No more than all the fish in the ocean and new born baby whales.

Of course, but very very very little ... the ocean is much bigger than you think and the displacement is much smaller.

No. The waves created have equal constructive and destructive effects in general.
