Because of what you were told, ("it's an Indoor Bonsai") the fate of the plant was already sealed. This is a very, very common occurrence. You really should take this out of it's pot and plant it in the garden for a year or two and see if it recovers. Truth be known, if it survives, it will be a hard road back. Putting it back into Mother Earth will not harm it, she might even heal it. Just do the plant a favor and put it in the soil outside, (weather permitting) if it dies, then it was already to late, but if you keep it in that pot and indoors it is dead anyway. It's not your fault, so don't go beating yourself up. The blame go to the person or persons that sold you the plant in the first place, telling you that it was an "Indoor Bonsai." You see, they care not what happen to the plant after it is sold. Their interest is in the money in your pocket. But from now on it is your responsibility to do what you can to help your Bonsai. Mark it down as a lesson learned, we are never to old to learn. Get some good basic Bonsai books and study them, don't just read them. Different authors will give you different slants on the same subject, but that OK. My Step-father said "if you give advice, plan on being ignored." That has never failed me or stopped me. So here goes. Just a word of advice, if you have any other "Indoor Bonsai" plants, get them outside also, before it's to late. How is your Child, I am a proud great grandfather and I love my great granddaughter very much. I thank God that I was given time to meet her. Take care and Good Luck with the Firethorn. I think, but not a hundred percent sure, Firethorn is a evergreen scrub, therefore it should be outside.

Don't spend money on tools now - the only indispensable one (for anyone, not just me) is a concave cutter - a decent 8" one will last you forever and address most of your needs outside of very tiny trees or huge ones. You won't find it anywhere but at a dedicated bonsai place, so most of us get them online, but you need to check what's available there, as I have no idea. Everything else can be 'faked' with other implements, from manicure scissors to little whisk brushes, etc. I do want to warn you (probably not news to you tho') about impatience and bonsai - they're hopelessly incompatible and lead to discouragement faster than anything.

The jade looks very healthy! Here is a video to watch, follow the link: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=UwPG4hHoehA Sun and dry air cause the aerials to shrivel and die. You can see from the video above that a lush canopy can provide its own sun protection for aerial root development. In my area there is enough humidity outside, but when indoors in winter I have to run a humidifier in my grow room. You might like the websites fukubonsai and bonsaihunk. ez

Probably a Juniper Procumbens 'nana' Care Sheet Bear in mind that care sheet is for an in ground plant. As yours is in a wee pot, it will need to be watered a lot more frequently than what that sheet says...probably every 1-3 days depending on the temps. Bonsai care sheet Don't worry about the pruning yet, just concentrate on keeping it alive.
