That C is not a pedal tone on the BBb tuba and assuming you don't use a pea shooter mouthpiece you need not change your embouchure to play it. If it is a CC tuba, don't even bother because the pedal C is just about 99.9% high harmonics and the C one octave about provides 5 times as much real bass to the group.
