well, the Perfect habitat for a guppy to give birth in is a large (100gal+) tank with a #105###load of plants (real or fake)
and seeing as how this would be overkill for just 1 fish, you're probably not gonna do it
so, a good habitat would be a tank (any size but use common sense) with lots of plants for the fry to hide in, the guppy should also be alone
or, if you want to not move the guppy, provide lots of hiding places (ie. using plants) in your main tank

yes i will get a cave today if there is any pet shops.

Large bunches of fine leaved plants, like elodea, cabomba or Java fern are better for guppies and their fry than caves; they're surface dwelling fish most of the time.
