In my experience, EGFP is much brighter than Ds-Red when illuminated
with either an argon-krypton laser or a Hg lamp. In the confocal, you
can obviously correct for this.
As for your problem, the first thing to check would be the transfection
efficiency. Next I would transfect cells with unfused Ds-Red vector to
find out whether you have problems with your microscope.
