here i did experiment and use f/20 and f/22. and was lucky to get more details. i recall when i was first shooting i use f/13 to f/16. it will give lots of details but due to DOF the focus area will be small. I hesitated to use f/20 bec. result is lesser details. then i found out i could make the shutter slow and add +EV on flash. result seem okay. also the distance from the subject affects the results.

Thanks and Enjoy the hoverfly :)
