Remove the corrosion and apply a barrier material that removes air from the metal. Grease is one but the auto parts dealers sell a terminal spray that is less messy and the cost is minimal. I am still on a spray can that is 10 yrs old and I've sprayed a lot of battery terminals. Putting a penny under the cable, near the battery terminal, will act as a sacrificial anode and most of the corrosion will attack the penny.
Batteries love to have a float charge on them 24/7. If your converter is delivering a float voltage, leave the batteries connected.
You can install an inverter to power the fridge from your batteries. I'd recommend a 1000W inverter.
