@YernSilverqueen I would remove it from the pot and check for root rot. A ficus tineke likes well draining soil. If roots are black and mushy, remove them. Spray any remaining roots with hydrogen peroxide. Repot the plant in soil that is well draining. A mix of 1/3 potting mix, 1/3 perlite, and 1/3 succulent soil works best for me. Here are the care tips I found for you. Good luck.
Light: Thrives in bright, indirect sunlight. Variegated varieties need ample light to maintain their colorful patterns, but harsh afternoon sun can scorch the leaves.
Water: Allow the top 1 to 2 inches of soil to dry out completely before watering deeply. Overwatering leads to root rot.
Soil: Requires a loose, fast-draining potting mix.
Temperature: Prefers warm indoor environments between 60°F and 80°F, away from cold drafts or heating vents.[
