Also, if anyone knows a good soil mixture for my fukien that would be great, I'm thinking a 50-50 mixture with perlite and peat moss, would that be sufficient?

No peat for bonsai of almost any kind. Use a little tropical mix (maybe 1/3 of the final mix) plus small bits of bark (another 1/3) and the rest something like akadama grit - pines, e.g. would be potted in all grit with a little bark, but Fukiens are tropical and need a little more help holding onto water. Pruning is not done as a matter of course in bonsai, but to achieve a particular design or style, which would be up to you, not us. Clip and grow (not cut and grow) is used in the same way to shape plants/trees without a lot of branch pruning, but relying more on new growth replacing clipped stuff, especially when clipping (I include small twigs here) is cut such that the pointed end of the slanted cut goes in the direction you want more growth to go.

Thanks for that, and my bad, it's sphagnum peat moss which is fine to use. I know I'm still pretty new but I have read multiple books and have multiple trees and the fukien enjoys a half inorganic and half organic mixture. And what you would buy from a bonsai retailer that would be a tropical blend would have sphagnum in it and is way overpriced. That is not the way to go for that. And you may call it clip and grow but it is widely used as cut and grow and many well renown bonsai artists call it cut and grow.
