Red Bloon

The Red Bloon is the lowest branch on the bloon hierarchy. They appear in all BTD games including Bloons Super Monkey. Red Bloons are recognized as the most common Bloon and the easist to pop taking only a single hit from any damaging weapon to do so. The Red Bloon is the child of the Blue Bloon and is not a parent of any bloon. It is the 3rd slowest Bloon in the game, with the 2nd slowest being the BFB and the slowest being the new ZOMG bloon that is in Bloons TD 5. Lead Bloons and M.O.A.Bs are equal to it in speed. Popping a Red Bloon rewards 1 Money and 1 XP (in BTD4 and BTD5). The Red Bloon is the Bloon in every first level because it wants you to get started for beginners.
