Ill post some pics of my final result here when it is done, but right now the 40 degree optics look fine, they are about 6" above the tank and no visible spotlight effect.
Total LEDs for my 48x12 55 gallon:
14 XP-G Neutral whites
34 XT-E Royal blues
6 Exotic (I think) True Violet LED - 390-430nm (420nm)
6 Exotic (I think) Turquoise - 495nm
6 Exotic (I think) Deep Red - 660nm
So 66 LEDs total, the Crees are all driven at 700mA and the exotic ones are all driven at around 600mA
