In the "Faces" group you'll find means to set foreground and background colours and a few more things. Maybe you can see the item "Frame Background Mode". (I'm not using Aquamacs Emacs. I prefer an Emacs feeling.)

Thanks for the idea. But the good of using reverse mode is that the
color display of various modes for coding can be retained, while
customizing normally overwrites mode's color setting.
