Neil Sir, Lactobacillus will flourish only if there is a source of energy for them.... i.e. either lactose (from milk) or plain sugar
Also, if these substances are present, the pH fluctuations and rise will be drastic
Also, they will not help with breaking down ammonia or other wastes thus not competing with other bacteria at all.
So, I think, the introduction of any form of Lactobacilli will not be helpful and could actually harm the balance.
