There are no rules on how to play the tuba except to sound good. Try hooking up with someone who lives nearby and take a couple of lessons. Sounds like you are more serious than the average kid about music. A good teacher should be able to demonstrate what the tuba can sound like with more practice. A good teacher will also be able to determine if you are taking in great breaths or if your embouchure could use some tweaking.
