Connections between the two batteries are 0/0 wire and the leads to the 100 amp and 50 amp circuit breakers. Wires need to be sized for the max amperage load on that circuit. 0/2 wire is rated for 200 amps.

I agree here.
To support present battery system & parallel more, I would use no less than #6.
But the line doing the load needs to be heavier, dependent on what that amperage is to be.
