The swollen cloaca is an indication of a sexually mature male and Cynops orientalis is a fairly small newt. Most of the ones that I have seen in the pet trade are full adults. These newts should be kept cool (below 72 F) and the closer to 65 F the better.

There is some information that you may be able to use here http://www.caudata.org/cc/articles/articles.shtml and here is a good care sheet on this species.
