How did you make these have a "normal" geometry? What commands or parameters
do this?

coordination and I wanted to eventually treat this region with qm (along
with a ligand). Therefore I thought it best to model these 4 waters with the
'normal' geometry, as opposed to the three-bond model. Do you have any
advice in this case? Also I attempted the rdparm command on my prmtop and I
thought the output was strange...see below:
