Carbon dosing fuels nitrogen reduction. No proof it encourages actual bacterial growth I've seen.
Sure it does, it's the basis of any of the bacterial nutrient reduction systems and why people use them.

There's plenty of of commercial bottled bacteria that can help speed this up. MicroBater 7 comes to mind off the top of my head. In this case you are physically adding the bacteria that hasn't naturally established itself.
