Ozone is primarily to make the water less yellow and secondarily to reduce the amount of organic material in the water. These articles explain the use of ozone in detail:

OK. I use and like mine, but it is certainly not the first or most important thing to use.

i think i could spend money on more important things than a little water clarity and my money is running dry anyway maybe in the future?

That sounds like a fine plan.
