I just upgraded from a 12gal AP with a 70w Sunpod system to a 34gal Solana with a 150w HQI Sunpod, is this enough for my crocea, maxima, and squamosa?

That should be plenty of light for any clam.

Yup! I have a crocea under 150 hqi he's doing great. Had it well over a year.

I kept a crocea about 9-10 inches down in my tank under 150 watt hqi's. It did well but growth was slow. As soon as I switched to 250 watt halides it started growing really fast. But to answer your question, yes you can keep them as long as the crocea and maxima are not too far down in the tank.
