Heh ignorance and crap eh? If your HELL BENT on doing dual batteries make sure you purchase both batteries at the same time and are of the same make. Make sure to take all proper measurements needed to insure that they are as similar as possible. otherwise they'll leech off eachother and just drain eachother out repeatedly. I'd suggest just getting a gel type battery (more reliable and require no maintenance) and upgrading your electrical system (it would be a wise idea anyways incase of any shorting that may or may not occur. Be wise and most of all be safe.
