Whether it's THE most expensive, I can't be sure. But one of the most expensive are Thein BB flat tubas, at 34,373 euros (that's about $48,500 American).
Add the extras on and you're looking at just over $50,000.
You can get custom made tuba's then the question becomes how much are you willing to pay as the sky is the limit

The tubing of a tuba typically measures around 15 to 18 feet in length, depending on the specific model and key of the instrument. This extensive tubing allows the tuba to produce deep, resonant tones. The length of the tubing is coiled to make the instrument more compact and manageable for players.

Bass clef generally. The Tuba is considered to be a non-transposing instrument, so a BBb, CC, EEb or F tuba will read from the same music and it is up to the player to know the correct fingerings. Sometimes (especially in Jazz charts) the parts are written an octave above the actual sounded note, the same as music for a Contrabass Violin (String Bass) or Bass Guitar. For what is called "British Brass Band Music" the Tuba part is usually transposed into the Treble Clef, so the part for a BBb tuba will look different than a part for an EEb tuba.

Uhmmm... Because celli and violas don't make as much sound as tubas, and you can have only one tuba in the whole orchestra, and have it overpower all of the other instruments, but when you only have one cello, it's hard to hear them~same with the violas.
