Right now I'm keeping all LPS, mostly euphyllia with an open brain and two candy cane corals along with montipora (SPS). You will be fine with all LPS that I can think of.

LPS are just fine. My only concern with the RSM is overheating issues. I have read and heard several complaints of the tanks getting too hot, even during the cold months. Nice set ups though

no overheating here, if you add the extra fan for 5-10 bucks you will definitely not have problems, before the fan i was running 82-83 degrees and now i sit at 78-79. i actually am thinking about taking the fan out because i'd like to run my temp a little higher.

No I don't have a RSM. I would look in the nano section on RC. There's a huge thread on RSM tanks. The good, the bad, etc.
