PH

Is a co2 scrubber worth the money?

It depends on what you are currently running your PH at. It is for some and not for others. It really depends on your house and setup. I was able to raise my PH on my 120 by .5. I actually had to add a solenoid to turn it on and off as it was raising my PH to high. This was my experience, and not others, as some did not see much of a rise. I feel it had to do with the house and such.

Scrubber + kalk slurry. Keeping that pH tight

That is impressive sir.

Ambient CO2 is the main driver

Somehow get 8.45 to 8.65 naturally on my tank. I used to worry about it, but now just roll with it, even recalibrate the ph probe but same results.

It can help a lot for "smaller" systems with a "bigger" skimmers. For my ~300G frag system, it wasn't very effective. I now dose ~4 liters of kalkwasser and it does the job nicely.
