Can Battery be Added to Two 100 Amp Battery Bank

Question:

I currently have two 100 AMP batteries in my bank 34282738. Can I add one of these to it, or do I have to match the other ones? I found 2 batteries to be insufficient to store enough power for boondocking.

You can add the Go Power Sun Cycle Solar RV Battery - Lithium - 12V - 100 Amp Hour - LiFePO4 - Group 31 # 34282738 but you want to make sure that the batteries are similar type (like this one is a Lithium) and that they are connected in parallel so that you are just increasing your capacity and not bumping the voltage.
