Help me identify this plant please.
I first got it many years ago when I took on a little tank. I think they said it was something like miniature or bonsai anubias but I’m not sure which they referred to and it does seem very small leafed.

I have always attached it to rocks and it has grown okay otherwise you can see it is slow growing so Blackbeard algae is quite a challenge.

In the pictures you can see in at least one the cherry shrimp next to it full size reference
Thanks in advance

Yup, looks like a variety of a anubias. You have a lot of BBA attached to your substrate. Might be advisable to remove all the affected substrate.
 
Thank you both
Thanks for the substrate suggestion. I will give it at a go to try and reduce it down.
I have been away a fair bit and now am back but will need to sell up as I will be moving house. I want to attack the algae for plants to be as good as possible before moving them on
