Speaking from experience , I would say that the reason i did it is for the shelf look .
And it looks really finished and you dont get the space between the tank and the trim. Like mine does. i pe to d y tnesk withthe ledge I like tem that way...

Asmodeus, I deleted my post

.

My post was asking why the tank was recessed, but I am not sure if it is or not anymore.

Is your tank going to be recessed in the wall or right up against the drywall?

It's going to be recessed, with a ledge/shelf in front of it, instead of the boring flush with drywall with trim look.

I happen to like the "boring" look, like a living picture hanging on the wall.

The shelf look works too of course!
