If I understood the wiki correctly, I don't think they spawn naturally? Instead I assume you need to take fireflies from the Overworld, release them in the nether, and then they will be converted into red ones? The wiki says:
Red Fireflies do not naturally spawn in the Nether, said color may only be obtained through conversion.

Yeah you need to break it and watch the firefly particles to go red.
