I have a canon t6. Is there a way of stoping the flash from firing in macro mode.

I shoot a lot of aquariums hate the flash on the glass.

Or should I use electral tape on it.

These are nice. If they satisfy you, great.

If you would like to see if there is something even better, do the exposure bracketing.

Put the black tape over the macro and green square selections on the mode dial. And, very most important shoot Raw file format and do post editing. Experiment with the suggestions given above.

One other suggestion that I haven't seen yet, Use a CPL fillter to help with eleminating most aspects of the glass showing in the shot.

A CPL will not do anything for the glass, only light.

Sorry, should have been a little clearer in my post, I meant relfections and glare on the glass can be toned down and/or eliminated by using a CPL which in some cases can make it appear as if there isn't any glass there at all.

You have the right idea experiment and bracket. Raw and post!
