i believe green is the best for night time viewing, you are able to see more detail etc under green lighting, the human eye can recognise more shades of green's than any other colour. Thats also the reason why night vision goggles are displayed in a green lighting.

if it was me i light it very dimmly with some red leds tbh

reps can see red and blue but they are not as disruptive as say a white light would be as they can still tell the difference between day/night with red or blue but white would make it more difficult

all the above... and it's also like a moonlight glow compared to a big bright (sun) light.
