Try contacting one of the collection managers, perhaps you could get a
collection tour (I don't know, but it might be worth a shot). The fish
collection is one of the largest in the US. I'm sure they are as busy as
any other museum staff around the country, but maybe you can use your NANFA
credentials! Even so, the museum itself should be more than enough to keep
you occupied. I've never been to it so I can't say - has anyone visited it
recently?
