Does anyone know if the hvx200 bag fits the hpx170? Does anyone have any experience working with these bags? Thanks!

I personally have never used one. But I've seen some really good HVX footage taken with it (in shallow water - you can't go very deep), and it certainly does the job.

The fit is fine, but the bag uses a small adapter ring to "seat" the lens in the port snugly. The HVX model comes with an 82mm ring, but the HPX has a 72mm thread. So you'll need (I believe) a 72mm-to-82mm step-up ring, or you could order a 72mm ring from Ewa (if they sell one).

But I love my Ewa bag.
