Attaching a fuse to a new set of batteries?
Due to various craziness in life, I let the batteries on my rig expire, so the only purpose they have is a core charge refund. This time around, I'm getting two 12 volt jars, using 36" 0 gauge cables...

Fuses and circuit breakers are intended to protect the wiring in a system.
Depending on which wire table, the application, and type of copper wire the recommended max current for a 1/0 copper wire is anywhere from 150 to 250 amps. You won't need anything close to that for a fuse in your application and no need for wire that size.
Go with slightly smaller wire as it's easier to work with.
