Hard to tell from the pictures but My guess would be brittle stars and it is highly unlikely you would ever see a full body of a brittle star unless by fluke. Most species of brittle star are completely harmless and are very beneficial to your tank the exception being green brittle stars they are destructive

They look like they are banded so I'd say brittle star as well. Either way both are good scavengers.

I would suggest putting the jug into another tub in case you forget about it. I've done it plenty of times and the extra containment has saved me a few times. Or if you have a bathtub in that room, it would be a good place to place the jug.
