I hear a lot of DIY Reef Snow and Ozone for water clarity. What are the differences between these two methods? Pros and cons? Which do you prefer?

Ozone is more advanced level. Would require a lot of attention to get it right. Reef snow is more labor, but not nearly as risky
 
I have done both, prefer ozone. I hear you on the risk with ozone but I am using @geo’s new Ozone reactor, with the carbon filter. Never once have a sniffed Ozone, the reactor is crafted like artwork. It’s allowing me to increase my use as prior I had cobbled something together that wasn’t super efficient or safe. Now, Uber efficient and super safe. I love looking down the long end of my tank. I look forward to when I get my new build from Joe with this new ozone setup.
 
I've never seen water so clear as when dosing Dr. Tim's Re-fresh.
 
I use both. If you can only do one, ozone is hands down most full proof and requires little interaction or upkeep once setup.
