Well, gosh, at the expense of repeating myself a hundred timesI use the FIX67mm kit and I use either the 10Bar AD to 67mm adapter or my own DIY AD to 67mm adapter:
Adaptor Ring ADF M67 - Lens & Filter Adapters - Point & Shoot Lenses & Filters - Optical Ocean Sales Underwater Photo - 800-359-1295!
No, I do not use nor do I own the FIX28AD kit, I have the FIX67mm kit and that is what I am mounting all of my lenses to.

I spoke with Ralph and Tony from reefphoto about INON UFL-165AD and UCL-165AD combination to this setup with 67mm FIX kit + 10 bar ADF M67 combination and Tony got back to me with a research on this. He wrote:
"After doing some research, the only way to quick change lenses on the FIX S90 is using the quick mounts that FIX offers.
While it is possible to mount the lenses using AD conversion rings like you had mentioned in your phone conversation, we find this is optically unacceptable, and results in really bad image quality. The other option is to use a 100 28AD wide lens, which would yield a good angle of coverage and good image quality, however this is a much more expensive solution.
The most economical option with the best image quality is here in this quote I prepared for you:

For some reason he suggested second adapter for $190 despite that the description pointed by the link provided by Tony - FIX UWL-04 Fisheye Wet Mount Conversion Lens - 67mm/52mm states: "The UWL-04 includes a 67mm step ring for housings with 67mm filter threads."
Why do yo think reefphoto advises about the INON UFL-165AD with 67mm FIX kit + 10 bar ADF M67 combination: "we find this is optically unacceptable"?
