if German Kriegsmarine set on course to develop seaplanes and seaplane tenders instead of conventional carriers, what might the planes and the "carriers" look like?

(of course they could/would have conventional seaplane tenders used for mail planes, etc. too)

my scenario is for Panzerschiffe hull and diesel engines to carry 6 - 9 Heinkel HE-115s and some number of partially assembled aircraft.

would like suggestions on numbers of planes that could be carried (that HE-115 was fairly large) and armament.
