battery connection for inverter and solar

Hello to all. I have a 2-battery house bank connected in parallel (12V). I have both the inverter (2000W) and the solar array (330W through a charge controller), connected to one battery (it was easier to connect them that way). Everything works but it does not seem to last long. Even getting good solar and limited load like just the frig.
My question is should I connect the positive leads (from inverter and PV) to battery #1 and the negative (ground) lead to battery #2?
Alternatively, does it even matter? Do I just need a bigger battery bank?
Thanks in advance
Phil
