guppie fish tank setup?

hi is there a way to setup 45 gallon tank for guppies so that I don't have to worry about guppies eating their fry and separating pregnant guppies all the time. I just want to let them breed like they are in the wild. In other words is there some type of fish tank grass or whatever that will provide adequate hiding place for little fish.

    You can use shrimps shelters, you know, these small tubes for shrimp to hide in

    The fry can go in them but the adults can't

    I don't use it (dont have guppies, my fish dont breed, also dont want them to) but a friend of mine who has guppies uses these and they all do well

    She sells the guppies and when there are no buyers and she get too many, she takes out the shrimp shelter so the fry cant hide that easily anymore fromt the adults
