If the permanent is already untapped, you can't activate its  ability. That's because you can't pay the "Untap this permanent" cost.

The "summoning sickness" rule applies to . If a creature with an  ability hasn't been under your control since your most recent turn began, you can't activate that ability. Ignore this rule if the creature also has haste.
5/1/2008
When you activate an  ability, you untap the creature with that ability as a cost. The untap can't be responded to. (The actual ability can be responded to, of course.)

Using this creature's ability means you're untapping it for mana, not tapping it for mana. Mana Reflection won't cause it to produce extra mana.
