Does this look right?

Hi I just started printed on an I3 MK3 and I think it has problems with the first layer, but I don’t know.

when I’m trying to print 0,15 and 0,20 mm layer height, the nossle rips up the prints when I get to third layer, and when I start printing the first layer it looks like this:

And the cirkle looks pretty wierd 

and if I take a closer look the brim looks like this:

is this normal?

No.  Your live Z is way too high.  You need to adjust it down (make more negative).

Follow the instruction here https://forum.prusa3d.com/forum/original-prusa-i3-mk3s-mk3-assembly-and-first-prints-troubleshooting/life-adjust-z-my-way/

Clean plate with dish soap.

Then adjust your z.

Normally in the first layer there should be no gaps.

Its Wierd cause now I printed the square with the exact same settings, and it looks much better, I dont know, could it be the filament? Or could it be my slicing skills?

I think it's your live Z skills, 
that square still looks to have separate lines of filament instead of a single smooth sheet with all filaments squished together!

Joan is saying you need to go a little lower.

Guys, now I’ve printed this, and at the start (marked with a circle) the live Z is about -1.200 and the end in the opposite end it’s around -1.270.

And throughout the print I slowly move “down” in Live Z but it has all these darker lines, and they looked like holes between the layer lines, so I kept on moving down and in the end it looks allmost see through, I don’t think that’s normal, what am I doing wrong? And yes, this is after I’ve  washed it with dish soap. So guys can you please help me?

Setting in printer, set calibration to 7x7, is a lot better.
