Clouds should be 128 to 256 to remove noise, depending on the clouds.  Cirrus clouds will probably do with less. 

Much of this depends upon what works.  If it looks good, then it's the correct quality setting for your image.

If your cloud "quality" is at 1 and you're not using unusual settings, then it may be your *atmosphere* samples that need to be higher. If you can show an example image we'd be better able to say for sure.
