Gadidae species Rotterdam Zoo Oceanium

Photographed in one of the North Sea tank at the Oceanium at the Rotterdam Zoo on November 10th, 2018. According to Zootierliste Rotterdam Zoo has both Atlantic cod and pollock, but I don't seem to be able to determine which one this is. Can someone help me?
going by the thin white line on the body and the faint stripes, I am suggesting Bib or Pouting (Trisopterus luscus)
 
@bongorob I have seen pouting before in different aquaria and those fish always looked less elongate/taller in the body. Also, and I checked in the original photos, this fish did not have a barbel under the chin.
