水清无鱼

[shuĭ qīng wú yú]
"Pure water holds no fish" implies that too much transparency and honesty can be detrimental. A clear river with pure water won't be able to hide the fish, suggesting an absence of something valuable. Often it conveys the idea that being overly straightforward or honest could lead one into trouble.
