Thanks Justin.

May I ask something, if i'm using the command for genbox before
minimization which is

genbox -cp protein_box.gro -cs solvent.gro -p control.top -o prot_solv.gro

next i insert water by using same command;

genbox -cp prot_solv.gro -p control.top -cs spc216.gro -o
prot_solv_wtr.gro maxsol 350

i'm using -cs for both genbox command instead of -ci -nmol, is it
wrong to use the command like that?



I don't understand why you need two invocations of genbox, but syntactically the commands are correct. The -ci -nmol options are for adding molecules randomly in the unit cell. The -cs option is for stacking grids of water boxes (or whatever other solvent you provide) within the unit cell.

Dear All users

How to can i replace a molecule(for example methane) with another
molecule(propane)?
Number of these molecules are given and their position is random,

Can I use genbox or genion, How to do i do it?


Likely you can't, as you were already advised:

A more robust approach for dealing with mixed systems can be found here:
