If you use library `frame-cmds.el', and
you bind `C-x 5 2' to command `clone-frame', 
then you can customize option
`clone-frame-parameters' to include frame
parameter `background-color' with the color
you want.  For example, this uses a light
blue background:

((background-color . "LightBlue"))

`frame-cmds.el' requires `frame-fns.el'.
Both are on Emacs Wiki's Elisp Area:
