you find a galaxy with a red tint, that has little gas and dust, it is most likely a:
spiral
elliptical

Brief Explanations
Elliptical galaxies are characterized by a red tint (due to older, cooler stars with little new star formation) and minimal gas/dust (since star formation requires these materials). Spiral galaxies have more gas/dust and blue tints from young stars; irregular galaxies also have gas/dust for active star formation.
