The aux battery will be a deep cycle while the main is a cranking one . Look for amp hour and cca ratings on them . Accesories should run off the aux battery .

Aux can be any battery that will fit the space.

As others said, the starting battery should normally be on the driver's side on a D1. Are the batteries connected by an isolator? Does a cable, probably red, connect the positive terminals on both batteries to a little box or other style of isolator in between the two batteries?
