Hello,
I bought my first bonsai tree beginning of September. Up till now I've been able to keep it happy, but recently the leaves have started falling down and generally don't look as healthy as they use to.
I know it's an inside tree, I keep it in the sunlight (I live in Prague there's no way the excess of sunlight could be the cause of this). I water it every 2 days, and feed it every week with a special bonsai liquid fertiliser.
I've attached a few photos. I hope you can help!
Thank you so much for your time.

It loks way too dry. Did you start heating the house? Also, only fertiliz when growing. Too much salt water will kill a tree.
For now, i would flush the soil: put it in a sinkand let a few litres of water run through it. Then do not water again untill the soil starts to dry out.
