There are a lot of myths about paralleling batteries.
For the most part the only thing you need to concern
The Connecting cables need to be large enough (Same as the cable that runs off to who knows where)
And the polarity.
Most everythign else the batteries will work out by themselves
In some very high current installs there is more (Load Balance) But you are into the hundreds of amp loads before that's a concern.
With GC-2's there are additional concerns but since you are not going that route. That is all folks.
