The Baltimore Aquarium definitely does this. I believe the aquarium in VA Beach also has this policy.
At NYA, yes. It depended on which exhibits the diver is moving between, though. There was one exhibit where we were required to simply shower ourselves thoroughly (we dived it using a hookah system provided by the aquarium, so there was nothing to scrub except outselves) before changing tanks. For some others, we might be required to strip off and soak all the gear we were wearing (we were required to use our own) before repositioning ourselves to the next tank.
