I know you're in IL but how much did you pay for your "bamboo" shrimp at Petsmart?

James,

There's a cheaper source in Sacramento, check out Jo Jo's Aquarium on Stockton Blvd, I think I've seen them there for around 1/2 that price.

...do you know for certain what they are? They don't look like the bamboo shrimp, unless there are several varieties or subspecies...

Sorry, didn't notice the price in the title for some reason. (feels incredibly dumb).

Yes, that's quite expensive actually because I've seen them for sale at certain PetCo's for $5.99. I even went to Petsmart and asked if they'd do a price match but the manager told me they don't do price matching on livestock which I thought was kind of BS since it's an extremely competitive store and it being a chain.
