Thanks, Justin. By additional topology details, I meant bond and angle
topology information for each of the water molecules. I have used LAMMPS
before and it is needed there. So it is not needed here, in Gromacs.
You don't need to define the interactions for every water molecule explicitly,
no. That's what Gromacs does for you. What your WAT [moleculetype] says is,
"here's everything you need to know about a water molecule." Then in
[molecules], grompp maps those interactions to all of the 3656 waters. The
software does all the work for you to remove ridiculous levels of redundancy.

Hi,
I am new to gromacs and I used acpype (amber2gromacs) tool to generate

*My
question is it does not include any topology details for 3656 water
molecules either in this file or separately. Instead it has topology
defined for standard water molecule in atoms section above. However,
Gromacs accepted these two files as they are and runs were made. Please
comment if I need to include water topology details for all 3656 water
molecules. *
What topology details would you include? The program simply printed a
full TIP3P topology, which mimics the effect of #including the tip3p.itp
file. It is a complete water topology and needs nothing else.
