I have a 20 gallon fish tank and it has no plastic trim on it. And I'm planning to put a plastic trim on my tank. Is plastic trim important to a fish tank?

depends on the tank. for larger tanks, using the plastic trim with the center brace in it, helps to stop the tank from bowing you can get replacement frames here

I use to have a fish tank with trim, I found it help the lid in place so it didn't slide. I am not sure if there is any other purpose for it.

plastic trim is for the aquarium to look good. it also acts as a boarder to the glass. for me I like to attach a black plastic trim.
