Reflection, not refraction!

Hullo everyone!
I'm planning on making a miny growing "chamber" using my oh-so-very-small aquarium. Please refrain the whole "make yarself a roum, mon!" since I'm not very interested in the whole thing.

All I want to know is is there anything besides mylar, and aluminum foil that happens to be somewhat effective for light reflectivity?
I don't mind if it's between 60-100%, and I'm not looking to pay big bucks either. The cheaper, the better.

Thanks for input! :D
 
since it's an aquarium (glass) you could paint the outside white giving a smooth and white reflective surface on the inside.
 
Good idea, but I'm thinking of something a slight bit less permanent, in case I decide to have fish again. Or any other animal for that matter, in me aquarium.
 
I'll second the white paint, though it would be a bit more efficient on the inside of the glass. And flat white is very efficient and very cheap. Spray can at walmart runs around $1.

One of those mounted razor blades that you use to scrape with, take that paint right off in no time.
