This will do it (if need particular water model change with cs switch
options, and assumes ligand.gro has the correct final box size)

gmx solvate - cp ligand.gro -cs -o complex.gro

Unless you have a particular number of waters required, then use.:

gmx solvate - cp ligand.gro -cs -o complex.gro -maxsol ####

To both above add -p topol.top if want it to automatically update the
topology file with number of molecules/residues. Otherwise you need to do
by hand, which is easy enough.

Or even if need a particular water coordinate file:

gmx insert-molecules -f ligand.gro -ci water.gro -nmol #### -o complex.gro
