On my last few tanks I set up I've gone to the local glass store and had 1/8" mirror cut to fit and used it for a background. Gives the illusion of more tank space and also helps curb aggression in some of my more aggressive fish (at least to other fish as the alpha fish tends to try and take it's self out in the mirror instead of other tank mates). Depending on how your aqua-scaping goes it can make for some very attractive tank illusions. and nothing reflects light back into the tank like a mirror for you plant folks
