I'm sure you have learned this with hindsight but I wouldn't fill your carboys that full.

When I have a very full batch I sometimes will use a long hose into bucket of water airlock so that it's less messy if it bubbles over, but best to just not have it that full to begin with

    I think that’s called a blowoff tube. I’ve used them before, especially when using a new yeast and I don’t know how aggressive it will be on that first night. Great idea. Anyone who has scraped wort off a ceiling should be using blowoff tubes for the rest of their lives 😁
