Please Kiss My Grass Aloes - They Need Help

I do not fancy myself to be an aloe collector, rather an aloe "acquirer". I guesstimate between 50-60 different species, including hybrids. I find it more than coincidental the only two grass aloes I have have seen better days. The aloe wildii on the left is brownish, but is sending up a flower stalk. A last act of survival desperation? The scrawny aloe boweia on the right just got knocked over by the raccoons this evening and broke the pot, revealing a mediocre root system. I would like to know if there is something special I should be doing for these. Complete shade? Filtered sun? Special soil considerations? The other aloes I have are doing well, just wondering if there is something I am doing wrong with the grass aloes.
