I'm of the view a 10x will be needed.
Saw a YouTube video
Titled "going deep", extreme macro. Allan Walls photography.
Entered search on YouTube for Nikon plan 10x.
Sorry I can't do a link, someone may be able to, worth a watch at the price if YouTube is available.
It's a bit slow and rambling.

Just revisiting this discussion

1. Here’s your link, Phill : https://youtu.be/UT-vH9_p8XI
… thanks for finding the video

2. I wanted to mention: I received two excellent adapter rings today M4/3 camera to double threads [C-Mount and 42x1mm]
… They were extraordinarily good value at the price I paid, but they appear to have gone-up by nearly 300%
Here’s the current listing: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/283777675651 … they may now be cheaper elsewhere.
