D500 + Nikon 20mm 1.8 - good combo?

I spend a lot of time in the water and really enjoy photography.  I'm definitely a novice/amateur when it comes to in water photography.  My shots are not Macro shots.  They are a combo of over unders, wide angle, people snorkeling/underwater exploring, bigger animals - sharks/dolphins/turtles/seals/mantas.  A good part of my hobby photography is surfing and waves so my housing is an Aquatech.

I currently use the Nikon 8-15 fisheye and the nikon 50mm 1.8.  I'm looking for something non fisheye and not too wide but something in between that has fairly good focus and does well underwater.  Would the Nikon 20mm (30mm equivalent on my D500) 1.8 be a good fit?  Anyone have experience with it?  The lightweight of it makes it appealing.

Thanks!

Josh
