Judy, I needed a good lava flow for a volcano I animated. I made a good map in animator pro, then just slid it along as a cell to animate it in anipro. The resulting map was applied to a morphing mass in 3ds. For more 3d realism you could model a few bubbles and make them come to the surface. The new hide feature that can be keyframed in R3 works well for making them "pop". Just hide the bubble then replace it with a poped bubble for a few frames then hide that one and repeat the action.
