Hi. Mg is probably in the force field already. You don't need to run it through pdb2gmx. Add it manually after generation of the topology for the protein. #include "ions.itp" in the topology file and add the correct name (check ions.itp) under [ molecules ]. Be sure to have all atoms matching in order with your coordinate file.
