Hi!

I picked this up at my local sam's club. What kind of bonsai is this? I figured it would be a fiscus. Thoughts?

Looks like a ficus.
Do you know how to care for it? Because this one is on its way out..

It's been dropping leaves since I've brought it home, less than 2 weeks ago.
The instructions on the care card said to give plenty of indirect sunlight and 5 ice cubes/week.

But I've been giving it water when the soil feels dry (from all the different websites i've read). I moved it to a south facing window because where I had it initially, it was dropping leaves like crazy.

Do you think I can still save it?

Is that such a "just add ice indoor bonsai"?
