[OM] Photographing fluorescence under UV/Black Light?

Hi List,

Here's a topic I don't think has been discussed on the list before, at least 
not in the 8 years, or so, that I've been on it.

As you may, or may not know, scorpions fluoresce under UV/Black Light Blue 
light.

I have a scorpion that I'd like to try photographing under UV/Black Light Blue. 
I have a small hand held fluorescent BLB lamp which I would be using. My main 
question is, are any special filters, film, other equipment needed to do this,  
or is it just a matter of figuring out the right exposure? Which would be 
better color negative, or slide film?

Thanks,
Darin
