What fills up craters?

That depends on where the crater is, and how it formed. Meteor craters on the Moon or Mars?

A good number of meteor craters are visible as circular lakes. The Meteor Crater in Barringer, AZ is still empty after 50,000 years. Volcanic craters sometimes fill with lava, or with dirt and water.

Are there craters all over Mars?

Yes, because Mars has a very thin atmosphere. If it had a thicker atmosphere (similar to Earth), most of the meteors would burn up. Since it has a thin atmosphere, most meteors strike the surface. Also there is very little erosion on Mars, so when a meteor hits Mars, the craters lasts for a very long time.
