I'm sure there are many attributes that you could alter to get the look you want from that fluid example

Check out the docs regarding that example, and you should have no problems, ....other than possibly rendertime depending on your resolution

There are TONS of attributes in a fluid, so directing you to a few specific attributes would be quite difficult at the moment for me as I'm not in front of Maya right now...

Good luck! and show us your progress & any tips when you get a chance!
