Oh man, I may have to give up on a few breeds for these now....They are stunningly beautiful! Whoever drew these beauties, needs a package of chocolate. These are fantastic!

I think they look pretty and elegant like everyone else said.I also think that the babies faces sort of look sort of humanish,or maybe my little ponyish.

Oh course I also have some concerns on this whole idea.Right now kelps are sort of Froggy/Fishy/Horsey.But with this they look just like qitari's with....fins.I like how almost every species of sylestia is unique and,sure qitari's don't have any water like qualities but if they did I think they would look pretty similar to the new Kelps.And not that that's bad or anything but....still....now kelpari's are just going to be fish horses.

I love them!!! cant wait! :D

The adults are perfect and amazing
I only have issues with the babies, the male's snout seems too short and the females head is too big!

The new kelps look super super awesome so far; the babies look like MLP characters, though. XD

I love the new designs, but one of my favourite things about Kelpari was the sassiness of the female hatchling. Is there any way of keeping that 'tude with the new designs?


I adore the overall new design and I think they're going to be fab anyway. I just think the sass would add more personality to the species. (Or rather keep the personality I felt they had).

Very nice! I'm loving the new design! I could never quite warm up the them before, these have a lot more character.
Agree with everyone else about the babies, they need to look a bit more horsey.

I second that. I kinda like the old kelpari hatchlings, because they seem to have a bit of an attitude. The new ones are almost too cute.

I absolutely love these! I could turn into a kelpie breeder after this becomes official.

I'm definitely feeling everyone who's mentioned that the babies look a bit "My Little Pony" ish. And, after I read through the comments, I do see how the female hatchling looks like a 'vorpa.

For what it's worth, the kelpari reminds me of the kelpie, which is actually a water horse... Sometimes pictured with a fish tail.
