Default Bonsai Tree Help ?



I received a bonsai tree for Christmas, and due to the change in conditions as to where it was kept (shop to friends house, friends house to my house) it began to loose its leaves. I decided then to add a little Miracle-Gro to the water that I was feeding it but now the little number of leaves it had have begun to turn crispy and brown and are falling off. Noticing this, I have started feeding it just water again.I think the tree is a Chinese Elm, however, I can't be sure. Will the leaves grow back or have I killed the tree for good? What should I do?

Chinese elm bonsai; deciduous, outdoor tree
All plants normally grow outdoors; however, some can be conditioned to survive indoors. Plants need proper light, moisture, temperature, humidity, nutrients, and maintenance to be successfully grown indoors. In discussions about keeping bonsai indoors, we refer to 'Cool House' Bonsai and 'Warm House' Bonsai. Cool House refers to trees that are not as cold tolerant, and need winter protection from freezing or severe cold. Most of these trees still need a winter hibernation period for their health. Most homes are too warm for these trees to be kept in the living areas of a home.
