That is definately not a good idea. Horned frogs need to burrow into the substrate, as that's what they do in the wild. My big horned frog spends 90% of its life buried, and if that's what she wants to do, then I think it'd be wrong to keep her in water and gravel. Also gravel can be swallowed during eating, and since these frogs have such sticky tongues, that would easily happen.
The coconut fiber is not an unsanitary substrate at all. I do not let mine get overly moist, and it never molds.
