With xyz periodic boundary conditions, the ions will eventually appear as if 
they are diffusing into the extracellular compartment from above as they 
diffuse down the -Z and leave the original box, anyway. So unless you actually
need them *only interacting* with the intracellular side by using walls, it 
doesn't really matter where the ions are placed as long as they aren't stuck 
somewhere illogical (e.g. inside the bilayer)
