so I was feeding some frozen and somehow my foxface got wrapped around my mp40 (@ about 50%). He was stuck for 30-45seconds before I could shut the pump off. He darted for safety once free. This is the damage

Any advice? Will he recover? Should I do anything?

He should recover.

You can do a bath in either methalyne blue or acriflavine (Ruby Reef Rally). These are antiseptic baths that may help prevent infection.
