The tuba became part of the orchestra in the mid to late 19th century. It wasn't invented until the 1840s.
The shape of the tuba has been changed through out the ages. The original shape of the tuba came from an instrument called a ophicleide. It was a form of the tuba except it had no valves. Later on Johann Gottfried Moritz and Wilheim Wieprecht invented a keyed ophicleide. The shape of the tuba was always changing through out the years. Well in 1845 a man by the name of Adolfe Sax had created a family of saxophone horns. He had these ranging from the soprano and the contrabass. The contrabass resembled a lot of what the modern tuba resembles now and that's where the modern shape of the tuba came from. Later on though a band leader by the name of John Philip Sousa got in contact with C. G. Conn and they created a more "audience-friendly" version of the tuba which is now known as the sousaphone.
Tuba! Tuba! Tuba! Tuba!

You may have spelled the word wrong but here is what i got.....: Invented in 1843 By: Ferdinand Sommer of Weimar It sort of looks like a miniature tuba.
The problem with this question is that Richard Wagner doesn't have the Wagner Tuba history itself. We have to see both histories. In 1853, he visited Paris were he visited the shop of Adolph Sax inventor of the Saxphone. It was then that he got the inspiration and invented the Wagner Tuba. The thing is that his invention don't mean he did in fact learn to play it. Nowhere in history says he did play that instrument. He wanted a more mellow sound compared to trombones and he so he invented the Wagner Tuba. He did play the piano.
the tuba is the largest
They invented it to replace the ophicleide in the orchestra, and to make a lower pitched instrument
No, the contra-bass tuba is much larger than the C tuba.
