i was wondering if a scsi reel to reel 9 track could work with the macintosh plus. I think tape drives look cool.

Macintosh plus and tape drive

SCSI tape drives all use the same basic protocol, so it should connect just fine - the trick will be software that supports your model of tape drive. And old version of Retrospect backup would be your best bet.
What he said. Although I might point out that 9 track is about as generic as SCSI tape drives get when it comes to compatibility- so it probably works with almost anything that supports tape.
I've heard to use Suntar or Mactar. They're for tape and some other stuff as well.
