Apple Airport Expresses can't wirelessly extend an Amplifi mesh network, 
you will need additional Amplifi gear - either those mesh point things 
or another Amplifi mesh router "cube".

I've got a couple of Unifi access points in my house which are working 
really well. I get signal where I didn't use to, Amazon Prime doesn't 
knock out the connection any more, everyone's happy, and the Unifi app 
gives me an interesting degree of insight into what's going on.

I'm still using my Airport Extreme as my external router (having 
disabled the wifi) - the next step is to replace that with a Unifi router.
