Hi there.
You are quite right, 2 drops = 2 degrees of Kh and Gh. The test kit strengths have been devised that way - to make life simpler.
dKh and dGh of 2 is very soft water. The low Kh will lead to unstable Ph. In my opinion a good dKh is 6 and not a bad idea to match the dGh to 6 as well.
The principle to raise both is the same. Add Bicarbonate of Soda (not baking soda) to raise Kh and Epson Salts to raise Gh. Raising either in a fish in tank should be done slowly to avoid shocking the fish. The fish less tank can be increased quicker.
What I do is make up a solution, this is a little trial and error, but I add 20ml of bicarb to 500ml of tap water in a bottle. This is my solution. I then add 25ml of the solution to each 10l bucket of water on water changes. I find adding this dilution safer than trying to guess the tiny amounts of bicarb required. This gives me about dKh6 in the tank, eventually. You need to adjust the amount of the solution if the Kh stays too low or drift too high. Too high and your Ph will rise to about 7.5. You soon get the hang of it.
I don't need to use Epson salts, my Gh is ok. But I would use the same principle but you will have to do a trial bucket to see how much solution is required to raise your bucket to dGh6. You may have to make your solution weaker or stronger. Once you get your measurements right then it's dead easy to make your solutions and use them on water changes.
If you are doing anything more than 25% WC on your fish in tank then I would not add the full Kh and Gh 6 water but maybe get your bucket water to 3 and work your way up over a few days.
When both tanks have reached Gh and Kh 6 you will need to use Gh and Kh 6 for future water changes. It is worth it as your water parameters will be a lot more stable.
I hope that's ok. Get back to me if your are unsure of what I have said.
Why not baking soda? It's pure sodium bicarbonate; aka bicarbonate of soda. Or were you meaning not baking powder (which contains baking soda but also other things undesirable in an aquarium)?
