Clove Polyps closed for months, is it dead?

Closed for months? Most likely. Press a polyp, if it’s dead you will notice.
I touched it and I felt some slime come off of it and it felt like what normal, alive corals feel like. I saw one polyps partially open up for a bit around a week ago. Is there any explanation for this?
 
Water quality the first thing comes to mind; second, Is there a film like covering them? If so, maybe a dip in peroxide solution.
Read a bit on the subject of different coral dipping methods. You may use a soft brush to check if theres something covering the polyps.
