Do reflectors make much of a difference in terms of how much light plants
actually get? If so, does anyone have any DIY plans for reflectors.??

It can make a big difference. I bought a Bright Kit from AH Supply when
I setup my 29g planted tank, and the reflector was significantly better
than any others I'd seen.

If you're into DIYing a reflector, you'll want to make it parabolic,
with the tube at the focus of the parabola (hope you remember some
algebra!). That will maximize the amount of light that will enter the
water directly.
