I know this is an old post ... interestingly, I have a Mappa with an air bubble now - tried burping him, no go. He's in a very large container - hoping he can giggle it out over night.
He's about 10" - I've had him for about 6 years now, such a good good fish ... I want to be sure I'm doing everything I can for him!
Here's an old video ... actually he likes poking his nose out of the water sometimes. This time, unfortunately - he got stuck with a 2" bubble.

Hey Pufferpunk! YES! Good as new! In addition to burping him ... I put him in a large container that sat on the bottom of the tank ... seems the pressure relieved the bubble 100% Yay!
