    I think people have used red bulbs, I have my RETF's under exo-terras blue night light.
    gives off a blueish purpleish light..according to exo-terra its supposed to emulate natural moon light in a rain forest area.
    The frogs are fine under it and are quite active at night with it on so I'm positive it isn't bothering them.
    (I like the blue light more than red personally also)

    Good luck with your adorable young red eyes!

    Some people use red bulbs to look at their frogs at night, because 'allegedly' the frogs can't see the red light??? I don't know. Being that they're frogs, all you need is a weak incandescent to simulate day time hours. They don't need UVB or anything like that.

    And yes, it is believed the color changing is dependent on mood, however RETF's can turn a dark purple at night time too. So camouflage is also a factor.
