Hi all,
            I have system consisting of a peptide(alpha-helix), I want the
peptide to be surrounded by magnesium ions(instead of water). How can i do
this gromacs? How can I find the concentration of magnesium ions. just like
in solution we have 0.5 Molar  Mg+2  solution, My question how can  find
concentration by increasing number of ions.


I don't fully understand what you're trying to do, especially in the absence of solvent, but I'll venture some simple advice. Concentration is just the number of moles per unit volume. Simple unit conversion exercises will tell you how many ions are needed to achieve whatever target concentration you're looking for.
