I have used Goop with good success which was recommended to me by JL Audio.
Yes, you should fix it so it doesn't spread and air leaks are bad.

did you also have type r, because the cone is made of strange plastic material and im not sure how well the goop will hold.

Yeah that's not really that bad for now. Is the crack all the way through the cone the whole way? I would use the goop they are talking about before it gets worse.
Try the Goop, if that doesn't suffice for awhile then its time to get a new sub. Just try it.
Is it a scratch or a crack that is through the cone in any way? I just cant tell with the pic.

it is a crack if i press on it then it sinks in, and should i smear goop all over the crack or just put it on the crack and not smear it and leave it spatial.

2 part epoxy, paint it on with a small brush. Scuff sand before applying to promote adhesion. If it doesn't look good, lightly sand the entire cone and spray it with some Testors or Rustoleum.
