Why are red plants red in nature?
Any color that you see in the plants is due to pigmentation. For every color of plants or even animals is due to reproduction to attract the opposite gender. Flowers blossom for pollination which in turn helps in reproduction. Similarly in animals, the beautiful colors like a peacock are to attract the opposite for reproduction.
In aquatic plants, the red plants are red to save themselves from the Sun's radiation. This is the reason Aquascaping gurus say for bright red plants you need high-intensity lighting. Red plants need very good light. As the red plants near the lighting system, they turn high red. This is due to save themselves from the radiation.
