Re: half a sixpence
Wondering why you would want to put a t/c on a macro lens, particularly one with a relatively long focal length already.
It should be able to produce a sharp image across the frame at F5.6 see :
EOS 6D, 6D Mk II, 80D, 70D, 100D, 200D, M50, M100. Canon 10-18, 18 - 55, 55 - 250 IS STM lenses, Canon 16 - 35 mm F4L, 35 mm EF-S macro, 50 mm F1.8 STM, 60 mm EF-S macro, MPE-65 macro, 85 mm F1.8, 200 mm F2.8 L II, M 15 - 45 mm, M 22mm F2, M 32mm F1.4. Sigma 24 - 35 F2 Art, 135 mm F1.8 Art, 17 - 50 F2.8 DC, 105 mm OS macro, 100 - 400 C, 150 - 600 C.

Re: half a sixpence
I have found that a 1.4x t/c is fine on a 100mm macro, only lose one stop, and I mostly shoot at f5.6 to 8 when hand holding so not an issue, you still get 1:1 macro and the extra reach can be useful on insects, add a ring flash or regular with a soft box and you're good to go

Re: half a sixpence
Reversing rings are fine...when you say everything is dark, what are you shooting, where, what settings? Hand held? Flash? Need some more info...also, you may need a lense that you can manually open up the aperture, as it may close to it's highest setting, as it won't be connected to the camera...not an issue on a tripod, just decrease the shutter speed/use a flash
