I always find myself unable to resist the urge to stare at anything red. The color is just so powerful while tripping

I read somewhere, a doctor theorizing that the colours that stand out to an individual in psychedelic experiences resemble or somehow reflect their current overall state of health. Red being the most unhealthy.
at one point during my last trip, my entire visual perception had a heavy red hue to it, everything looked like different shades of red/maroon and it really concerned me. I realised I need to start eating healthy, exercising more, drink less and quitting smoking would probably help too.

And if I remember correctly, brighter colours meant a more healthy person. Greens, blues, purples etc

Could it be you were in a room with warm white light? It has a reddish tint that you wouldn't realize when sober.

Yes, but the same light has been present in many of my previous trips too and this only occurred recently. 
You could be right though, perhaps I didn't recognise it in other trips.

Yup. With a little bit of bright pink tossed in for fun, and usually in a spectacular 3-dimensional plaid.

I personally think that a lot of the noticeably prevalent colors in a trip often signify to me which of my chakra are more active than the rest. For example, seeing red during a trip may signify that my Root chakra is opened wide, and my feelings of connectedness to the Earth are strengthened. I think that red especially would make sense to see a lot of during a mushroom trip, because they usually cause me to feel a very strong, spiritual oneness with the natural world.
I have also experienced this a lot during a few of my LSD trips, especially with the color orange. This seems to have a massive spark in my creativity!
This is my own interpretation of what colors might signify in a trip. I hope I may have helped in some way!

I disagree:
I went inward (closed-eye, dark room experience) and it was tunnels all resembling that shade of red that Alex Gray's "Halls of DMT" utilizes.
I believe this RED is a form of primitive color - the color of fire and blood - and since the mushrooms are the oldest organisms on earth (mycelium), I feel that they are most acquainted with this color RED.
HOWEVER, I noticed early in the year, on a different open-eye w/ friends trip, that EVERY LIGHT was a brilliant lime green color, even far from the source of the light.
WHILE it could be said of open-eye visuals, I think when it comes to closed-eye experiences (THE MOST PROFOUND - almost amazingly profound) the theory falls apart.
If you are going inward, the color could just be red because of the eyes acquaintance with Sun-Light.
Nevertheless, interesting theory, but ONE MUST ASK when looking at these theories: "Why would one color be worse than the next, or vice versa?"
Truth is: there is no one color that is more sinister than the others, just what our stupid, rational minds try to make sense of, rather than just realizing that everything is ONE...even colors... it is just our eyes and monkey brain that make us want to say there is a difference in these things... there is NOT.
RED, GREEN, PURPLE, BLUE... all is beautiful... all is simply light.

Blue for me. One time a few years back I had a lucid dream on shrooms and the entire dream was tinted blue. It was like black and white, but blue and white.

My vision went all red when I was tripping off shrooms last night. At first I was like "da fuck is this?" But I just kinda laughed at how it made my friends looked and accepted it. it passed after like a minute though.
We were outside and it was pretty dark.

The first time I tripped hard on shrooms I saw a red dot everywhere I looked (among other things). Like a sniper dot...it was just moving around the room. Really fucking weird

One of my trips on an unknown chemical involved a red theme to the trip. We were tripping pretty hard, looping, and surprised about how high "acid" (wasn't really acid) will get you. The trip didn't have much insight, and I felt bad because I didn't take back anything from that trip. :/
My first bad trip had a brown theme to it. To me, the color brown doesn't look to pleasant. Or maybe it doesn't look pleasant anymore because of that trip... Either way, some trips for me have color themes. Not completely sure if it's just the type of drug, or if it IS a reflection of my mind state.
Ideal theme colors for me would be blue (a beautiful color, my eyes are blue too), pink (probably the least threatening color to me), or green (reminds me of life (or living), and marijuana).

This sounds a lot like my experience with 25-i. It is often sold on blotters that look just like LSD, but it was a very different trip for me. (I did know that it was 25-i, I just wanted to try it once)
I actually had a very purple-themed trip on this, and a lot of the visuals were beautiful and abundant with fractals. Like you said however, it was not very profound and I didn't really learn anything from the trip.
I'm not sure if what you took was 25-i, but it might be a similar cousin in the 2C- family. Unless you have already figured it out that is!
